Metal Face Seals for Industrial Applications

Metal Face Seals for Industrial Applications | Golden Eagle

Metal Face Seals in Mechanical Sealing Systems and Their Structural Characteristics

Metal seal designs incorporate rigid metal elements (typically stainless steel) in combination with engineered/seal face designs that offer stable sealing conditions even when exposed to harsh working environments. Metal face seals are also appropriate for applications that require a high level of dimensional stability and structural integrity. Examples of metal face seal application areas are in rotating/conveyor equipment and industrial pump systems operating in controlled environments.

Advantages of Metal Face Seal

Material Selection Flexibility

Flexibility to select the appropriate material for the specific operating conditions and environment.

Reliable Sealing Under Heat

Reliable seal performance under thermal conditions. The seal design is intended to successfully accommodate controlled thermal expansion.

Thermal Stability in Structure

Thermal stability of the mechanical sealing structures. The metallic components within the seal design are built to handle the effects of thermal expansion.

Applications Metal Face Seals

Metal face seals are used in pumps that move a variety of heated fluids including thermal oils, process fluids, or even heated water at elevated temperatures. The metal-faced/bellows-supported sealing designs are frequently used in high-temperature applications, reducing the effects of thermal expansion on the sealing stability. Typical applications include energy generation, chemical processing, and industrial heating circuits.

FAQ

Are standard mechanical seals designed to run in high-temperature environments?

Yes, standard mechanical seals can run under high-temperature conditions, however, the material selections are critical to the success of these seals.

Why are bellows-style mechanical seals more suitable for high-temperature applications?

Because bellows mechanical designs reduce exposure of elastomers to extreme heat provided through the heat transfer from the metal.

Is a special installation required for high-temperature mechanical seals?

Standard installation processes are acceptable so long as the materials are compatible.
