1. What are mechanical seals, and what are they used for?

Mechanical seals are essential components used to prevent fluid leakage in rotating equipment such as pumps, compressors, and agitators. They work by maintaining a tight seal between a stationary and a rotating surface, ensuring reliable operation in high-pressure, high-temperature, and corrosive environments. At Sakowitz, we specialize in standard and custom mechanical seals for industries like oil & gas, water treatment, power generation, and chemical processing.

2. What materials and specifications do your mechanical seals have?

We manufacture high-performance mechanical seals using premium materials, including:
• Silicon Carbide (SiC) – High wear and corrosion resistance
• Tungsten Carbide (TC) – Suitable for high-temperature and high-pressure applications
• Ceramic (Alumina, Zirconia) – Excellent chemical stability
• Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316, SS316L) – Corrosion-resistant for multiple industries
• Elastomers (Viton, EPDM, PTFE) – Enhancing sealing performance

We also provide customized mechanical seals according to international standards like API 682, DIN 24960, and ISO 3069.

3. How do you ensure the quality of your mechanical seals?

Quality is our top priority. To ensure reliable and high-performing mechanical seals, we implement:
• Strict material inspection (using spectrometer analysis and hardness testing)
• ISO 9001 Certified quality control system
• 100% quality testing before shipment
• Optional third-party testing (SGS, TÜV, BV)
• Comprehensive inspection reports for every batch

For large orders, we can also provide customized quality inspection services based on client requirements.
