Graco 15J057 Leather Vee Packing

Graco 15J057 Vee-Packing (Leather) – Detailed Description

The Graco 15J057 Vee-packing, leather is a precision-designed seal component built to deliver robust performance in high-pressure pump and valve assemblies. Crafted from quality leather-based packing material in a “vee” configuration, it ensures effective sealing under dynamic movement while allowing smooth operation of reciprocating or rotating parts.

Key Features

Benefits

• Produces tight seals around dynamic shafts to prevent fluid leakage.
• Reduces maintenance and replacement frequency thanks to high-quality leather material.
• Helps maintain consistent pressure and system performance by preventing wear-induced gaps.
• OEM part ensures correct sizing and optimal function within the intended Graco assemblies.

Installation & Maintenance Notes

Before replacing the 15J057 packing, relieve system pressure and remove the old packing. Clean the sealing surfaces thoroughly, inspect the shaft or rod for wear, and install the new vee packing ensuring the leather rings are properly seated. When first brought into service, monitor for seating settlement and leaks—adjust or retighten as necessary. Periodic inspection for wear or glazing will help determine when replacement is needed.

Why Use the OEM Vee-Packing?

Using the genuine 15J057 ensures the correct material grade, precise profile and reliable performance in your Graco equipment. Non-OEM or mismatched packing may lead to premature wear, increased leakage, or lower system efficiency. Choose the correct part to preserve system integrity and reduce downtime.
