Pumps & Pump Packing

Industrial pumps handling hot water, steam, and chemical slurries relied on asbestos rope packing in their stuffing boxes. Pump mechanics who cut, fitted, and replaced this packing were directly exposed at every maintenance cycle. Ingersoll-Rand, Goulds, and Worthington pumps appear throughout the industrial asbestos litigation record.
