Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
STEP 1: SAFETY
•  Before Packing installation, the equipment must be isolated
•  Moreover, you must be aware of proper maintenance and operating techniques
before attempting any installation

STEP 2: REMOVE ALL OLD PACKINGS & LANTERN RINGS FROM THE
STUFFING BOX
•  Remove all old packing rings from the stuffing box, including lantern rings,
bushings using a packing extractor or tooling
•  Ideally, two packing extractors should be inserted into a single ring at the same
time, locating each extractor 180 degrees from the other

STEP 3: CLEAN STUFFING BOX AND EXAMINE OLD PACKINGS AS WELL

AS SHAFT
Careful examination of old packings removed from the stuffing box is essential to
determine the source of packing problems

If the packing rings have become hard and are difficult to remove, it has
probably reacted to the chemicals handled or has over heated, as the packing
possesses a low thermal conductivity (essential to remove the local frictional
heat generated in the stuffing box)

If the packing is thinner and worn along one surface, the shaft is probably
misaligned. If the packing is worn thin in several areas, the shaft is eccentric.
Under both these conditions, the shaft must be replaced/ repaired before new
packing can be installed.
Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
STEP 4: CHOOSING THE CORRECT CROSS SECTION OF PACKING
The stuffing box cross-section, stem diameter, stuffing box bore must be
measured, preferably by a vernier . The depth may be measured by a scale

The cross-section (CS) of the packing can be determined as below:

Cross Section (CS) = (stuffing box bore - shaft diameter)/2.

The number of rings to be installed can be determined by dividing the depth of the
stuffing box by the packing cross-section (CS):

Number of Rings = Depth/Cross Section (CS)

Extra depth in the stuffing box is allowed to insert the nose of the gland into the
stuffing box.

When using a lantern ring, check its thickness and subtract it from the number of
rings required. Placement of the lantern ring is critical. Its location can be
measured from the top of the stuffing box down.

Subtracting this from the stuffing box depth will give one the distance from the
bottom of the stuffing box. Dividing that by the cross-section will give you the ring
position for the lantern ring from the bottom of the stuffing box.
Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
STEP 5: CUTTING PACKING INTO RINGS
It is essential that the packing ring is cut on a mandrel which has the same
diameter as the shaft packing. If there is no shaft wear, rings can be cut on the
shaft outside the stuffing box. Hold the packing tightly on the mandrel, but do not
stretch excessively and cut the ring(s).

Alternatively, the following formula may be used for determining the cutting length
of the packing:

L = (d + s) * 1.07 * π (mm)

Example:
Shaft diameter d= 80mm
Stuffing Box diameter D=100mm

Then, Packing width (s):

S= (D-d)/ 2 =10mm

Cutting length (L):

L = (d + s) * 1.07 * π (mm)
= (80 + 10) * 1.07 * π = 302.4mm

Always use a sharp knife to cut, do not use a sawing motion if possible.

For rotating equipment like Pumps and Refiners, a butt cut preferbale to keep the
packing cool and lubricated during operation. A Skive cut is preferred for Valves
where no leakage is desired.
Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
STEP 5: CUTTING PACKING INTO RINGS
Always check to see if the proper size ring has been cut by placing the cut ring onto
the stem/shaft to test its length. Additional rings can be cut in the same manner, or
the first ring can be used as a master from which the balance of the rings can be
cut.

If the Butt cut rings are cut on flat surfaces, be sure that the sides of the master
rings and not the OD/ ID surface is laid on the rings to be cut. This is essential so
that the ends of the rings are identical.

Each ring should be cut individually. A coil of packing should never be wound into
the stuffing box. It is necessary that the rings are cut to the correct size. If this is
not ensured, service life of the packing will be greatly reduced. This is where die
formed rings have an advantage. There is no wastage due to incorrectly cut rings
and you are sure of exact size rings for that optimum performance

STEP 6: INSTALLTION OF PACKING RINGS

After the rings are cut, install them one at a time in the stuffing box, making sure
that the packing is clean. If required, lubricate the inside of the stuffing box and
the shaft

If pre-cut or die formed rings are used, it should be open carefully, axially and
radially, just sufficient for it to be pushed onto the shaft. If the rings are opened, it
can suffer damage through buckling. Turning the shaft occasionally will help in
seating each ring firmly. The cut end of the ring should be introduced first into the
stuffing box
Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
STEP 6: INSTALLTION OF PACKING RINGS

Stagger the joints of each ring at approximately 90 °

intervals. See Fig on left

If the stuffing box requires a lantern ring, make sure that

it is properly located under the flush port.. When enough
rings have been individually seated so that the nose of the
gland will reach them, individual tamping should be
supplemented by using the gland

STEP 7: AFTER THE LAST RING IS INSTALLED

Slide the follower forward until it contacts the packing and finger tighten the gland
bolts. The gland nose should enter into the stuffing box 1/8" - 1/4" to prevent
gland cocking (do not jam the packing into place using excessive gland load If the
gland bolts are over tightened, the packing will fail catastrophically from
overheating due to lack of lubrication.

It is vital that the lubricating fluid reaches the shaft during start-up. If there is
external lubrication, open the flush water valve to allow the shaft to become
lubricated before starting the pump. Provide lubrication as specified by the pump
manufacturer
Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
STEP 7: AFTER THE LAST RING IS INSTALLED
If the pump media is providing lubrication, simply start the pump. Allow the
packing to leak freely for about 30-60 min to allow the packing to stabilize and eat
itself in the stuffing box. The stuffing box temperature at no point should increase
abnormally, a rise of 20-60 deg cent above the medium temperature is permissible.
Take up the bolts until leakage is decreased to a minimum. Tighten the gland bolts
one flat every 10 to 15 min until leakage level is acceptable, approx 8-10 drops per
min per inch of shaft diameter (depending on the type of packing used: Asbestos,
PTFE, Aramid etc type packing require greater drops/ min of leakage). Stopping
leakage or over tightening at this point will cause the packing to burn up or glaze.

CAUTION: At any stage in the tightening sequence, leakage completely stops or

there is a sudden rise in temperature, immediately loosen the bolts until leakage is
observed. Compression packings must leak! Start the process of tightening over
again.

Incase of excessive leakage at the outside diameter of the stuffing box, the packing
rings require strong momentary pressing while the pump is shut off. Then the gland
is released and the running in process repeated.

STEP 8: REPLACE THE PACKING COMPLETELY IF LEAKAGE CANNOT BE

CONTROLLED BY FURTHER TAKE UP ON THE GLAND. ADDING OF
PACKING RINGS IS NOT RECOMMENDED
Installation of Gland Packing - an analysis
VALVE PACKING TIGHTENING
After the last ring has been inserted, tighten the gland bolts down. The gland nose
should enter into the stuffing box 1/8" - 1/4" to prevent gland cocking (do not jam
the packing into place using excessive gland load).

Next, manually open and close the valve a minimum of three complete strokes.

Finally, re-tighten the gland bolts once again to make up for packing consolidation.
The valve should be then be pressurized. Due to the nature of valve applications, it
does not require a break-in period and must not leak. If the valve is not operating
visually leak-free upon start-up, shut off the power, lock it out and make the proper
adjustments.
