Advantages of a Bellow Mechanical Seal A Bellow Mechanical Seal is a seal assembly comprising a radially disposed of bellows unit and a cartridge sleeve that is permanently secured to the bellows unit by a circumferential weld. Prior to being permanently fixed, the bellows assembly and the corresponding cartridge sleeve are lapped and flatness checked so that both components remain perfectly flat. One of the main b...
More detailsWhat Is a Pump Mechanical Seal? Among the most common causes of pump downtime are mechanical seal failures. A mechanical seal is a pair of optically flat faces that are connected to the drive shaft of a pump. A lubricant is applied to each face to keep them in contact and prevent wear. Mechanical seals also perform the duty of containing the pressure of the pumping process. This helps avoid waste of product, clean u...
