bellow mechanical seal for sale

A Bellows seal does not have a secondary seal that must move along the shaft or sleeve to maintain seal face contact. The secondary seal is static state at all times, even when the pump is in operation.

Primary seal face wear is typically accommodated by welded metal or elastomeric bellows which move to assist in the compression of the rotary to stationary seal faces.

Bellows seals allow for high and low temperature applications when used in conjunction with metal bellows. They do not require a rotating secondary seal, which means it is not prone to secondary seal hang-up or fretting along the shaft or sleeve.

Bellows Mechanical Seal are a type of mechanical seal where the spring element is a bellows. This eliminates the need for a secondary dynamic seal e.g o-rings. Bellows Mechanical Seals are also known as non-pusher seals as they have a static secondary seal which stays in place against the shaft, sleeve or on the gland of the pump.

A bellows mechanical seal is used where a dynamic seal is deemed unsuitable for the application e.g high temperature medium slurry or high seal hysteresis.

The primary mechanical seal functions exactly the same as a standard mechanical seal except the spring element is now being replaced with a bellows. The friction from the dynamic seal (e.g o-ring) is not a consideration.

However if a bellows mechanical seal should fail it can be due to several reasons such as; poor wielding, product particulate getting into the bellows and causing the spring element to fail, chemical and/or abrasive attack or over-pressure.

If you have any query around how to install bellow mechanical seals for pumps or have some concerns around the seal failures, why not contact one of our seal specialists below to discuss it in more detail and find out how we can help solve your issues and get your process back up and running reliably again.

We recognize and understand the vital role of bellows mechanical seal in their application. With purposes including securely fastening components within systems, and contaminants prevention such as gases and liquids from navigating through enclosed and sealed areas. That is why we offer wholesale bellows mechanical seal in different variations and diversities to ensure the integrity and efficiency of systems they will be applied to will function successfully and optimally. The different seals" types available include static that does not move along with other seals and dynamic seals that move collaboratively.

Depending on the industry and selected purpose, we consider bellows mechanical seal requirements. Requirements are like pressure, that is pressure changes, to ensure they can withstand and do not deform by the sealed fluid, the load and how it can withstand deflection, dynamics such as the alignment and vibration, and temperature covering the environmental conditions and the heating arising from the friction of the seal operation and fluid movement.

The seals are either bolts, nuts, or washers. Seal bots are commonly used because of their benefits in being reusable, preventing fluids and contaminants from escaping even under high pressure. Nuts are essential on temperature withstanding and compatibility with screws, studs, and bolts, in addition to, easy installation. Moreover, washers can withstand high pressures and are compatible with other seals.

Elastomer bellows mechanical seal is identified by the use of a unique elastomer bellows or diaphragm for the secondary sealing part, which provides a high degree of axial flexibility to compensate for lack of concentration of the shaft & misalignment & wear due to thrust movement of the shaft.

Elastomer bellow seal is the most commonly and generally used rubber bellow seal, due to its compact design, easy installation, mass production and low cost.

Elastomer seal is non-directional, technically advantageous and extremely versatile. Elastomer bellow seals can be used regardless of the direction of the rotation since the driving torque is not transmitted through the single coil spring. The required driving torque is enhanced through the rubber bellow which fits on the shaft through the interference fit between the collar, rubber bellow, and shaft.

So as to meet the varying demands of our overseas customers, we are involved in manufacturing and supplying a collection of high-quality rubber bellow seals with competitive price, no minimum quantity.

Because of its excellent performance in various industries, as well as it’s compact design, cheap price and variety, rubber bellow mechanical seals are the most commonly used industrial seals.

Elastomer bellow seals are widely used in the centrifugal pump, water pumps, circulation pump, submersible pumps, auto cooling pumps, general industrial pumps and other rotating equipment, high-temperature applications of various chemical, petroleum, refinery and polymer industry.

Asymmetric bellows form results in even stress distribution with benefits of greater strength and higher rate of flexibilty; seal is bi-rotational and inherently pressure balanced.

Smooth profile is resistant to clogging and therefore ideal for slurries and fibrous liquids. Similarly, seal unit is easy to clean and sterilize in place.

It is easy to occur coking and carbon deposition at the trough between the wave plates, which makes the bellows lose elasticity and cannot compensate, so it can not be used for coking, carbon deposition and crystallized precipitation pump.

For external installation mechanical seals, the sealing surface can be pushed open when the pressure in the sealing cavity is more than 0.2MPa. This is because the elastic force of the bellows is small and can not withstand the high pressure of the medium. Therefore, it is not possible to use an external bellows mechanical seal when the pressure is high.

Because the metal bellow type mechanical seal is a balanced structure, the effective diameter and load factor must be calculated in use. Otherwise, in the high-pressure propane and propane pump, the phenomenon of “spray leakage” is easy to occur.

The welded metal bellows mechanical seal has good floating and random compensation, which can compensate for the leakage caused by wear, axial movement and vibration. Welded metal bellows itself as the elastic element and the sealing function, so there is no need to design the general dynamic auxiliary push ring spring type mechanical seal ring, thus avoiding the fine particles due to dynamic auxiliary seal ring caused by the obstruction, dynamic auxiliary seal and high temperature because of its axial friction resistance reduction the seal compensation ability of the problem.

Metal bellows mechanical seal with no auxiliary seal ring, reduce a leak; at the same time reduce the friction resistance compensation mechanism, improve the following; in the petrochemical industry, welding sealing temperature is not restricted by auxiliary seal bellows; for PTFE bellows seal can be used in the corrosive medium. Its drawback is that some bellows have the smaller elastic force and need to add auxiliary springs.

Welded metal bellows are made by interlacing and closely welding each internal and external diameters of each wave plate, so no matter whether they are used as the stationary or rotary type, it is not necessary to consider the problem of rotation. Welded metal bellows can be made from precipitation hardening stainless steel, high-temperature nickel based materials and chrome-nickel corrosion resistant materials. Therefore, welded metal bellows can be applied to a wide range of temperature (-117 C – 426 C), and various acid, alkali and salt media. The selection of different thickness and layers of the wave plate makes it withstand a pressure of up to 7MPa in a special pump. The design of welded metal bellows seal is generally balanced, so its pressure bears little influence on the surface pressure. The welded metal bellows mechanical seal is not only suitable for nonhydrocarbon media, but also for flash hydrocarbon medium. Compared with the ordinary mechanical seal, its service life has been greatly improved, so it has a higher ratio of performance and price.
