Sometimes, operating conditions are so harsh, ordinary secondary seals won’t do the job. That’s when it’s time to call in the big guns—Qualiseal’s metal bellows seals. Qualiseal offers metal bellows as a secondary sealing option for mechanical face seals. Providing exceptional sealing performance in highly toxic, corrosive, high temperature and/or high pressure environments, a metal bellows design can be the optimal solution to solve the most difficult sealing challenges. The bellows function as the secondary seal, as the spring to hold the primary seal against the mating ring, and as the anti-rotational lock. Only the most complex and demanding applications require the high performance and reliability of a bellows seal.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
Benefits:
Enables high chemical resistance
No dynamic O-ring required, eliminating the possibility of hang-ups or compatibility issues
Hydraulically balanced metal bellows allow the seal to handle more pressure without heat buildup
Can fit into same space as existing face seals
Moderate operating lengths with compact construction
Features:
Can utilize either an O-ring on the outer diameter in a slip fit application, or can be designed to press-fit into the seal bore of your unit
Unbalanced or balanced designs
Seal designs incorporate seal face material grades to encompass a wide range of applications, including high-pressure velocity (PV) or extreme vibration applications
