Mechanical Seal is a device used to stop 100% leakage from Rotary Equipment. It has Rotating & Stationary faces with Elastomers & energize component like spring or Bellow. It has several
Advantages:
- 1. Stop 100% Leakage
- 2. Save Energy
- 3. Reduce Maintenance
- 4. Reduce environment Hazards
- 5. Improve Work Culture
- 6. Keep Clean Work Station
- 7. Reduce Shaft / Sleeve erosion
- 8. Save Manpower
Important Factors in selection of Mechanical Seals:
- 1. Pressure / Vacuum
- 2. Temperature
- 5. PH Value
- 6. Nature of liquids
Material For Faces :
Are here with their PV Value in unit of Bar / M/ Sec in bracket. It is a product of Pressure & Velocity, higher the PV Value more is the life of Seal.

Elastomers:
Used by us are given below with their Temperature Limits in °C in bracket.
- 1. P.T.F.E: (-80 to 220°C)
- 2. G.F.T: (-80 to 232°C)
- 3. Viton: (-29 to 204°C)
- 4. Perflouro (upto 350°C)
- 5. Nitrile: (-40 to 121°C)
- 6. Graphite (upto 800)
- 7. Silicon: (-62 to 204°C)
- 8. Neoprene: (-55 to 149°C)
- 9. Aflas: (-30 to 235°C)
- 10. EPDM: (-50 to 160°C)
G.F.T. = Glass filled Teflon Vt. = Viton Nt. = Nitrile Pf. = Perflouro Si Silicon Ne. = Neoprene C.F.T. = Carbon filled Teflon Ep. = EPDM
