SB30


Single-lip spring-loaded PTFE rotary shaft seal

The spring-loaded lip design allows the seal to accommodate low rpm shaft runout or coaxial misalignment up to 0.020″ and high surface speeds.  It is capable of handling extreme temperature, aggressive media, higher surface speeds, low to medium pressures, and can even run dry.  The soft seal OD eliminates damage to housings manufactured from expensive metals.   An integrated O-ring on the OD of the seal serves as an anti-rotation device and provides positive static sealing between the seal and the bore. Typical applications are gearboxes, mixers, and augers. Small quantities are available in 2-4 days.
