    Lantern ring with rope packing gland

    This areas Floway Rep is not helping me with any specs on this pump. I need to know what the sequence of the packing glands and lantern ring are inside the packing box. Or even the type of glands or lantern ring makeup. Is the packing sequence ie. 11+111 or 1+111? Is the ring a 2 or 4 piece ring?
