Cartridge Seals

Cartridge mechanical seal construction is a proven reliability improvement. The seals are pre-assembled at the factory, pressure tested and shipped as a unit, leading to improved performance as errors due to incorrect installation are reduced. Cartridge construction eliminates the need to measure and set spring compression, and having a mechanical seal pre-assembled means that the seal faces are protected from damage during installation.

Single Seals

A single mechanical seal consists of stationary and rotating seal faces that are made from one hard and one softer material. A single mechanical seal offers considerable cost and energy savings when used instead of gland packing.

All our single mechanical seals incorporate hydraulically balanced seal-face technology for reduced power consumption, helping our customers reduce their energy usage whilst increasing reliability.

Double Seals

A double or dual mechanical seal consists of two independent seals mounted within a seal chamber outside the pump, which is flushed with an independent supply. This makes them ideal for sealing hazardous liquids, liquids with abrasives or liquids that are corrosive, as the seal faces only see clean lubrication greatly increasing mechanical seal life.

Bellows Seals

The major advantage of using a metal bellows seal is the removal of a semi-dynamic sliding elastomer from a conventional pusher type mechanical seal. This removes the potential for mechanical seal hang-up or shaft/sleeve fretting.

With 50% more bellows than the industry standard (12 instead of 8) there is less stress on each convolution in the bellows stack which helps increase seal life.
