Kettle Seal Manufacturer
– Providing stable and reliable shaft sealing solutions for reaction vessels, agitators and mixers.
Adopting corrosion-resistant structures and high-strength materials ensures that the material operates without leakage under high-temperature, high-pressure or vacuum conditions.
Understanding the Role of a Kettle Seal in Reactor Systems
O Vedação da chaleira is a sealing device specifically designed for reaction vessels, agitators and mixers, used to prevent the leakage of liquids, slurries or volatile gases along the stirring shaft. It forms a sealing interface by the precise mating of the rotating ring and the stationary ring end faces, and can operate stably under positive pressure, negative pressure or even vacuum conditions.
Unlike ordinary mechanical seals for pumps, Vedação da chaleira can adapt to the common shaft eccentricity, vibration and axial movement in agitating equipment. This makes it an irreplaceable key component in fields such as chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, food and fine chemicals.
Its structural types are diverse, including single-end, double-end, jacketed cooling type, sanitary grade structure, and special designs suitable for high-temperature or dry running conditions, ensuring safe and reliable sealing in complex reaction environments at all times.
Why Kettle Seals Are Essential for Reactors
The reaction vessel operates under various complex conditions such as high temperature, corrosive media, vacuum or high pressure. Therefore, it must be equipped with a professional “kettle seal” to ensure safety and stability. The correct sealing structure can effectively prevent material leakage, avoid pollution in the production site or safety risks, and ensure that the equipment complies with environmental protection regulations.
The professional kettle seal can withstand temperatures ranging from 100 to 250°C and various acids, bases, and solvents. It is suitable for vacuum reactions, pressurized reactions, and continuous stirring processes. Its structural design can absorb axial movement and vibrations, thereby extending the service life of the bearings, the kettle body, and the mechanical seal itself, and reducing maintenance costs.

Advanced Kettle Seal Engineering by Sakowitz
Sakowitz specializes in the engineering design of high-performance kettle seals, ensuring that the seals maintain stable performance under high temperatures, corrosive media, and vacuum conditions. Our solution takes into account durability, hygiene, and adaptability, and can meet the various reaction process requirements from the chemical industry to the food industry.
- Multiple structural options available: Supports single-ended, double-ended, magnetic drive type, and structures with cooling jackets. The configuration can be freely adjusted according to the pressure and temperature of the reaction vessel.
- High-performance material combination: The friction surfaces use SiC, Carbon or WC; the elastomers select FFKM, PTFE, EPDM to be compatible with strong corrosive and high-temperature media.
- High-quality metal components: Uses SS316, Duplex, Hastelloy®, Titanium and other metals to enhance corrosion resistance and structural strength.
- Wide equipment compatibility: Suitable for various mixing equipment such as reaction vessels, agitation vessels, mixing tanks, blending vessels, and sterilization vessels.
- Compliant with international standards: All seals comply with API 682, ISO 21049, FDA, ATEX, CE and other international safety and hygiene standards.
- Deep customization capability: Supports customizing shaft diameter, differential pressure design, temperature grade and special material requirements (such as high viscosity, solvent-based, solid-containing slurries).
Sakowitz’s kettle seal is designed to enhance equipment reliability, reduce the risk of leakage, and ensure that the system can operate stably for a long time under harsh conditions.
