Abstract
Most chemical pumps on the market today were designed 20 to 30 years ago, in the days of shaft sealing by gland packing. Their characteristics include small diameter shafts, with the packing acting as a third bearing to support the overhang; high pressure in the seal chamber; and excessive shaft end‐play.
