Water Pump Mechanical Seal Material

The other key aspect of a mechanical pump seal is how to maintain the seal.
Water pump mechanical seal material. The load the seal faces receive are engineered into the design of the seal. They re made of graphite impregnated aramid fiber and are for use in pumps and valves. The faces in a typical mechanical seal are lubricated with a boundary layer of gas or liquid between the faces. Other mechanical seal hardware which includes shaft sleeves gland rings collars compression rings and or pins.
Highly cost effective and reliable for high volume water systems swimming pools shower pumps central heating irrigation. Springs single or multiple a metal bellows or just compressed elastomers are used to provide the needed energy to keep pressing the seal faces together. Rings of ceramic carbide carbon or composites of these materials are lapped flat in the range of less than 1 micron on an axial end face. We recommend the epr sic sic material since that seal can handle ph up to 12 5 which gives some wiggle room.
Vulcan seals water pump mechanical seals. Mechanical seals require clean water or other compatible liquid for the lubrication of the seal faces.
