    Metal & PTFE Bellow Mechanical Seals — When to Upgrade from Rubber Bellows

    Welded metal bellow and PTFE bellow seals eliminate the elastomer secondary sealing element, so they handle high-temperature hydrocarbons, steam, thermal cycling and aggressive chemicals that would destroy a rubber bellows. If your service sits inside 150 °C and moderate pressure on water, HVAC or light chemical duty, start with our Elastomer Bellow Seals — they are lower-cost and equally reliable for that envelope. Move up to metal or PTFE bellow seals only when temperature, chemistry or thermal cycling exceed elastomer limits.

    2100, AKA U4901 or INT, Mechanical Seal for Centrifugal/Vacuum Pumps, Submerged Motors, Compressors, and Decelerators. Single end, balanced, independent direction of rotation, rubber bellow transmission. Compact structure with good compatibility and easy installation. The bellow and spring provide pressure compensation to the sealing faces. The rubber bellow design prevents radial runout so the floatability of the rotary ring is increased. Can work as an alternative to similar John Crane products. Widely used in centrifugal pumps, vacuum pumps, submerged motors, compressors, agitation equipment and decelerators for sewage treatment, chemical engineering, pharmacy, paper making and food processing.
