Installation
The Universal Seal Cage Lantern Ring is simple to use. Just uncoil the length, wrap it around the pump shaft and cut to size on site. Ring will spring to the bore of the stuffing box providing shaft clearance. Short lengths can be used to form one lantern ring.
For perfect end joint fit, wrap 2 turns of electrical tape around a mandrel of the same diameter as the shaft & butt cut.
