SPECIALTY ITEMS DIE-FORMED RINGS Because of the friction along the shaft and bore of the stuffing box, the mechanical pressure exerted by the gland is not transmitted uniformly across all the rings. In conventional packing methods, the first two rings absorb most of the mechanical pressure; therefore they receive the most wear and in turn exert the most wear on the shaft. In fact, 70% of the wear takes place here. But, with Die-Formed Rings, the mechanical pressure is exerted over a larger area, greatly increasing shaft sleeve life. Die-Formed Rings are easier to install because the size is exact. Also Die-Formed Rings are densified, "run-in" time is greatly reduced and sealability is much better resulting in longer pack- ing and sleeve life. DIE-FORMED RINGS FLEXIBLE LANTERN RING MATERIAL Made of 100% PTFE material, Flexible Lantern Material is an innova- tive approach to standard lantern rings. Designed to perform like lan- tern rings, flexible lantern material is easier to install and remove. Sold in roll form like bulk packing, flexible lantern ring material can be cut to the specific length needed, therefore eliminating the need to stock many different size rings. LANTERN RING MATERIAL TM PAK-LUBE TM Pak-Lube is a water-based lubricant designed to make installation of packing rings fast and easy. Many other packing installation lubricants TM are metal-based and can damage sleeves and shafts. Pak-Lube dissipates completely, leaving no harmful residue. PACKING LUBRICANT 23
