About Mechanical seal type 502

The Type 502 mechanical seal is one of the best-performing elastomeric bellows seals available. It is suitable for general service and provides excellent performance in a wide range of hot water and mild chemical duties. It is specifically designed for confined spaces and limited glands lengths.

Design Features mechanical seal type 502

  • Completely assembled one-piece design for fast installation
  • Unitized design incorporates positive retainer/key drive from bellows
  • Non-clogging, single coil spring provides greater dependability than multiple spring designs.
  • Will not be affected by build-up of solids
  • Full convolution elastomeric bellows seal designed for confined spaces and limited gland depths. Self-aligning feature compensates for excessive shaft end play and run-out

Material mechanical seal type 502

  • Bellows/Seat O-ring: Nitrile/Fluorocarbon/Ethylene Propylene
  • Face: Silicon Carbide Converted Graphite/Resin Impregnated carbon graphite
  • Retainer/Spring/Drive Ring/ Assembly / securing ring: 316 Stainless Steel
