Parameters

  • Pressures: Up to 25 psi ID and 350 psi OD 
  • Temperature: Up to 500°F
  • Speed: 20,000 sfpm
seal

Type 11

Similar to a Type 10, this aircraft style seal includes a ferrule behind the O-ring for ID pressure. 

FEATURES

  • Used when application presents excessive ID pressure
  • Typical applications include gear boxes, pumps, compressors, and mixers

Parameters

  • Pressures: Up to 250 psi ID and 350 psi OD 
  • Temperature: Up to 500°F
  • Speed: 20,000 sfpm
Type 14 Seal

Type 14

Similar to Type 11 but more heavily-constructed type of seal.

FEATURES

  • Fully machined
  • Heavier construction
  • Built for higher pressure applications than Type 11
  • Typical applications include gear boxes, pumps, compressors, and mixers

Parameters

  • Pressure: Up to 1200 psi
  • Temperature: Up to 500°F
  • Speed: 15,000 sfpm
Type 18 Seal

Type 18

This type of seal is similar to a Type 10 or 11 but the seal and seat are unitized.

FEATURES

  • Unitized seat and seal make for easy assembly
  • Typical applications include pumps, mixers, and compressors

Parameters

  • Pressures: Up to 250 psi ID and 350 psi OD 
  • Speed: 10,000 sfpm
  • Temperature: Up to 500°F

     

Type 20 Seal

Type 20

Types 20 seals feature chemically inert materials on every surface that comes into contact with the liquid being sealed. 

FEATURES

  • Maximum corrosion resistance
  • Independent spring assembly
  • Prevents seal face misalignment
  • Easy removal & replacement of components subjected to the most wear
  • Typically used in process pumps

PARAMETERS

Pressure: 150 psi

Temperature: -50°F to 250°F/-45°C to 121°C

Speed: 1000 fmp/5 mps
