Why the Middle East Needs Specialized Sealing
The Middle East region presents unique challenges for pump sealing systems:
- High ambient temperatures (often exceeding 45°C)
- Sandy, dusty environments
- High salinity water in desalination and wastewater treatment
- Demanding oil & gas process conditions
These factors make standard sealing solutions prone to rapid wear, leakage, and failure. That’s why customized mechanical seals are not a luxury—they’re a necessity for long-term reliability and cost efficiency.
Our Tailored Sealing Approach
At Sakowitz, we don’t offer one-size-fits-all seals. We design and deliver region-optimized mechanical seals that meet the needs of Middle Eastern industrial operators.
✅ Custom Options Available:
- Material Selection: Silicon carbide, carbon, tungsten carbide options for extreme media
- Secondary Seals: FKM/Viton or PTFE for high temp and chemical resistance
- Cooling/Flushing Adaptations: Seal chambers with cooling jackets or external flush
- Desert-Hardened Housings: Resistant to sand, UV, and extreme heat
Typical Use Cases in the Region
| Sector | Application | Customization Focus |
| Oil & Gas | Crude pumps, separators | High-pressure, ATEX-certified sealing |
| Water Desalination | High-pressure feed pumps | Anti-corrosion + cooling-integrated |
| Mining | Slurry, dewatering systems | Abrasive fluid sealing |
| HVAC/Utilities | Circulation and booster pumps | Extended lifespan in high temp zones |
