Traditional lantern rings and mechanical packing setups have been the go-to for decades. But, these older technologies aren’t built for today’s performance expectations.

Water waste. Seal failure. Shaft misalignment. Maintenance headaches.

It’s time for a better way.

Introducing the PackRyt® Diverter: Modern Shaft Stabilization and Flush Control in One

Unlike conventional components, the PackRyt® Diverter is more than just a bearing. It’s a patented shaft stabilization system with an integrated flush relocation channel, engineered to improve sealing performance and reduce water usage, without the need for equipment modifications.

‍

Here’s how it works:

‍

• The composite bearing keeps the shaft centered and stable
• The built-in flush channel reroutes water away from the process fluid
• Everything fits inside your existing stuffing box, no redesign needed

What Are the Benefits of the PackRyt® Diverter?

• No More Dumping Excess Flush Water: Older setups waste water by releasing flush directly into the process stream. The Diverter redirects flow away from the product zone, preserving water and preventing contamination.
• No Stuffing Box Modifications Required: Some upgrades demand costly retrofits or custom machining. Not the Diverter. It’s designed to fit right into your current system, making installation fast and cost-effective.
• Shaft Concentricity for Longer Seal Life: The built-in bearing ensures the shaft stays centered, reducing vibration and uneven packing wear. This results in extended seal and packing life, reduced maintenance, and fewer breakdowns.
• Reduced Water Waste = Lower Operating Costs: With rising water costs and increasing pressure to improve sustainability, the Diverter helps you meet both financial and environmental goals.

From Outdated to Optimized: See the Difference

Outdated sealing systems don’t just underperform, they actively contribute to higher costs and downtime. The PackRyt® Diverter upgrades your sealing system without adding complexity.
