Installation & Service Advice
Proper installation of the 15A057 packing is essential to ensuring optimal performance and service life of your pump’s fluid section.
- Clean the stuffing box and fluid chamber thoroughly before inserting the new packing.
- Check the shaft or rod surface for scoring or damage — repair or replace as needed.
- Install the PTFE vee rings with correct orientation and even compression to avoid leaks or premature wear.
- Follow manufacturer-recommended torque and assembly sequence to avoid misalignment or seal extrusion.
- After reassembly, run the pump under low-load conditions to check for proper sealing and stability before full operation.
When Replacement Is Needed
- Emerging fluid leaks around the packing or rod interface
- Visible wear, deformation or glazing of previous packing material
- Reduced pump performance, inconsistent output or increasing maintenance intervals
- Abrasive or chemical damage to the sealing area requiring upgrade to OE part
- Scheduled rebuilds where OEM packings are recommended for reliability
