To the best of my knowledge, estopa is tow cloth, but estopada means packed.

PROBABLY THE CORRECT WORD IS PACKING (AS A NOUN, AND NOT AS A VERB). BUT PACKED PUMP MEANS THAT, A PUM P WITH A PACKING.

6 mins
  -> A part, or a feature, as the question states? I never said it was the pump. I included pump in the references to give the context.
agree  Russell Gillis: On your last comment. Packing ring seems to be an acceptable term as well.

I need more context ("skopo"), but it sems to include "packed" -- adjective of "estopa"


Explanation:
Example: "La bomba puede despacharse/enviarse estopada", meaning "the pump can be delivered packed".

"Estopa", from the Latin "stuppa", originally referred to rags made out of fibers -- like scrubbing pads -- and means, in English, oakum or tows. Estopa is also used as a mariner term, for caulking ("calafatear", in Spanish.)
