mechanical seals

Mechanical seals are constructed of three basic sets of parts:

1) A set of primary seal faces: one that rotates and one that remains stationary.

2) A set of secondary seals known as shaft packings and insert mountings, such as o-rings, rubber boots, PTFE or Grafoil wedges, or V-Rings.

3) Mechanical Seals have hardware including gland rings, collars, compression rings, pins, springs, retaining rings and bellows.
