The MECO HC seal is a modular, air-free mechanical shaft seal designed for CEMA-standard process equipment, featuring polymer rotors and stainless-steel stators driven by an elastomer ring to provide seal face loading without compressed air. It accommodates up to 1/4" of shaft runout and allows in-place adjustment via a clamp accessed through a 1/4" NPT inspection port. Housing sizes range from 1 to 6, supporting shaft diameters from 1.50" to 5.07" (38.1 mm to 129 mm), with material options including anodized aluminum, 316L stainless steel, FDA nylon, FDA-approved polymers, Viton®, silicone, and EPDM. The seal is suitable for horizontal, inclined, and vertical shafts in dry powder, abrasive, and chemical conveying applications.
The MECO HC seal model is the best air-free choice in sealing technology for screw conveyors . The HC model is a full-contact, soft-face mechanical shaft seal, using an elastomer drive to rotate bearing-grade, polymeric seal faces against fixed, stainless steel seal faces. The various seal assemblies are sized for equipment following standards of the Conveyor Equipment Manufacturers Association (C.E.M.A.) and their metric equivalents.
The HC Seal model provides the superior performance, durability and quality of workmanship that are hallmarks of MECO’s many other highly-regarded custom seals. MECO’s first-rate customer service is provided for each HC seal sold.
