We offer a wide rage of mechanical seal, we also manufacture products as per our customers needs.

Mechanical seals are leakage control devices, which are found on rotating equipment such as pumps and mixers to prevent the leakage of liquids and gases from escaping into the environment. Figure 1 shows a typical centrifugal pump, which highlights its constituent parts, including the mechanical seal.
A mechanical seal consists of 2 principle components. One component is stationary and the other rotates against it to achieve a seal (Figure 2). There are many types of mechanical seal, ranging from simple single spring designs to considerably more complex cartridge seal types. The design, arrangement and materials of construction are essentially determined by the pressure, temperature, speed of rotation and product being sealed (the product media).
A mechanical seal is a device that helps join systems or mechanisms together by preventing leakage (e.g. in a plumbing system), containing pressure, or excluding contamination. The effectiveness of a seal is dependent on adhesion in the case of sealants and compression in the case of gaskets.[2]
A stationary seal may also be referred to as ‘packing’.
