Industrial Seals

Product Details:

A Cartridge Seal assembly is "pre-set" so that no installed length calculations must be performed for determining where to set the seal. Only the external seal in a double cartridge have "set tabs" that are removed once the seal is installed and the pump assembled.

Some products are not compatible with a single cartridge mechanical seal. Examples include toxic liquids whose leakage into the environment would be hazardous, liquids whose suspended abrasives would rapidly wear the faces, or corrosive liquids requiring seals made of costly materials. In recent years most states are requiring double mechanical seals to maintain fugitive emissions limitation requirements. In an effort to limit water usage, many users are converting to double seals. There are two ways to design for such products.
