junta / empaque


Explanation:
realmente hay poco contexto, pero por el encabezamiento del texto que das, me da la impresión de que "packing" se refiere aquí no al empaquetado sino a una junta de estanqueidad (que es una de las acepciones de "packing" en inglés)

gas·ket (gskt)
n.
1. Any of a wide variety of seals or packings used between matched machine parts or around pipe joints to prevent the escape of a gas or fluid.

El término empaque también se utiliza en español (en algunas zonas) como sinónimo de junta, p.ej:

http://www.oni.escuelas.edu.ar/2005/CORDOBA/882/junta.htm
http://spanish.alibaba.com/product-gs/sealing-gasket-sealing...

y creo que también podrías utilizarlos con este sentido, dependiendo de para donde sea tu traducción

neutral  slothm: ¿Junta = seal?
2 hrs
  -> Yo diria que junta=gasket/packing/seal=sello. Todos estos términos son dispositivos de estanqueidad (o formam parte de algún dispositivo de estanqueidad). P. ej. http://tinyurl.com/4y3wbnx
