Purpose and Application

Dual-Face Seals, also known as mechanical face seals, provide an impermeable barrier between moving parts. Their design minimizes wear and tear in high-pressure, abrasive environments. Two separate floating metallic seals and two elastomeric load rings. As O-rings transfer pressure from the housing to seal rings, it allows one metal seal ring to rotate with the housing while the other remains stable. Seal rings interact with each other to form a contact sealing face perpendicular to the axis. As wear occurs, the contact band will move inwards. However, the O-ring releases elastic compensation, keeping the Dual-Face Seal in a precise position to maintain its stability.

These seals are vital in industries with extreme conditions such as construction, mining, and heavy machinery, where equipment reliability and longevity are critical. Typical applications include:

  • Excavators
  • Bulldozers
  • Heavy-duty trucks
  • Scraper conveyors
  • Mixing machines

All of our Dual-Face Seals are manufactured in one location, ensuring quality throughout the entire process so you receive exactly what you ordered, every time. We can even provide an installation tool to make installation a breeze and get you back up and running in no time.
