All seals leak and the goal of the mechanical seal and the mechanical seal support system is to control leakage. Nearly 40% of all unscheduled critical pump shutdowns are caused by mechanical seal failures. When rotating equipment fails, it's often due to a seal failure. The ideal way to avoid this is to  a seal support system that is customized to your application's specific needs.

Swagelok's Mechanical Seal Support Systems are designed to maximize the life of mechanical seals and the reliability of rotating equipment by maintaining lubrication and system pressure and providing properly conditioned fluid flows.
