Universal Seal Cage Lantern Ring 5/16 x 48 Width 7/16

Description:

The Universal Seal Cage Lantern Ring 5/16" × 48" with a 7/16" width is a flexible PTFE sealing component designed to replace traditional machined lantern rings in pumps, valves, and rotating equipment. Manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE, it provides a lubrication and flush path within the stuffing box to extend packing life, reduce shaft wear, and simplify maintenance. Maintenance personnel, OEMs, and pump service technicians commonly use this universal seal cage for replacement, preventive maintenance, and on-site fabrication of custom lantern rings.

Applications:

The Universal Seal Cage Lantern Ring 5/16" × 48" with a 7/16" width is commonly installed between packing rings in centrifugal pumps, mixers, agitators, and other rotating equipment where flush water, grease, or lubrication is introduced into the stuffing box. Its 5/16-inch cross-section, 7/16-inch width, and 48-inch length allow technicians to cut custom-sized lantern rings on-site, reducing inventory requirements and improving sealing performance in chemical processing, water treatment, mining, pulp and paper, and general industrial applications.
