US-TB/TBR
|
The US-TB and US-TBR mechanical seals are designed for applications involving corrosive chemicals, acids, and reactive process fluids. The seals utilize PTFE and GFT composite bellows that provide excellent chemical resistance and eliminate the need for dynamic elastomers. The US-TB version features a replaceable rotary seal face, while the US-TBR design incorporates an integral seal face construction. These seals are widely used in pumps and rotating equipment operating in chemical processing plants, fertilizer units, and other industries handling aggressive media. |

Products FAQ`s
Mechanical seals prevent leakage of liquids or gases between a rotating shaft and a stationary housing in equipment such as pumps, compressors, and mixers. They help maintain process efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and protect equipment from contamination or fluid loss.
US-TB and US-TBR seals are designed for handling highly corrosive and chemically aggressive fluids. They are commonly used in chemical processing plants, fertilizer industries, acid handling systems, and pumps operating with reactive or corrosive media.
The US-TB seal features a replaceable rotary seal face, allowing easier maintenance and replacement. The US-TBR version uses an integral rotary face design, providing a compact structure suitable for certain corrosive applications.
These seals are manufactured using chemically resistant materials such as PTFE and GFT composite bellows, Silicon Carbide, Ceramic, Carbon, and corrosion-resistant metals like SS316 and Hastelloy C.
US-TB / TBR mechanical seals are designed for shaft sizes from 19 mm to 100 mm, temperatures from −45°C to 120°C, and speeds up to 2900 rpm, depending on application requirements.
Yes. The seals are specifically designed for extremely corrosive environments. The use of PTFE based bellows and chemically inert materials makes them suitable for acids, salts, oxidizing agents, and reactive organic compounds.
Yes. Unique Seal Engineering Co. provides customization based on shaft size, operating pressure, temperature, and process fluid to ensure proper sealing performance for different industrial applications.
