Reliable Mechanical Seal Face Function, Design Considerations, and Material Pairing

Mechanical seal faces serve as the sealing components between stationary and rotating parts and are responsible for containing the fluid to prevent leakage. The face shape and flatness are two key aspects of how well the seal will establish a barrier to prevent fluid loss during operation. Selecting the right face shape to produce a proper interface will allow the seal to function reliably and stay in service longer.

Advantages of Mechanical Seal Face

Optimised End-Face Contact Design

The design of the seal face allows for the maintenance of consistent contact between the seal faces under normal operating conditions, maintaining reliable sealing performance over a variety of pump applications.

Flexible Face Material Combinations

Standard mechanical sealing technology allows for the combination of a variety of different face materials to adapt the sealing technology to water, oil, and/or the majority of the chemical media without requiring a basic redesign of the mechanical seal.

Repeatable Stable Gland Installation:

Gland-type mechanical seal designs allow for the reproducible installation of the mechanical seal and to ensure proper face alignment. This contributes to the reduction of sealing problems associated with installation error.

Application 🛠 Mechanical Seal Face

Mechanical seal face design applications are diverse: A large portion of the applications that mechanical seal face designs serve are instances where the smoothness and predictability of motion are critical, such as with mechanical seals used for water circulation, oil recirculation, and chemical transfer for pump applications. Due to these benefits, gland-mounted mechanical seals are well-suited for mechanical seal face design applications because they are easy to inspect and to perform maintenance on.

FAQ

What is the purpose of the mechanical seal face in a typical mechanical seal?

The primary function of the seal faces is to provide the means of sealing the rotating shaft from leakage of the process media.
Typically, seal face materials will be selected based on the media properties, temperature range, and method of lubrication.
The gland mechanical seal is designed to allow the seal assembly to fit within a gland plate to provide a secure, stable axial position that makes for easy installation. Gland seals are typically used with standardised pump sealing chambers.
