Mechanical Seals
6000 Series

Rotating Metal Bellows Seals

Single and dual cartridge rotating metal bellows seals with no dynamic O-rings, built for the toughest operating conditions in refineries, petrochemical plants, and chemical plants, including high temperature service to 750°F.

FSI 6000 Series rotating metal bellows mechanical seal
Metal Bellows Line

Built for the Toughest Operating Conditions

The FSI 6030/6040 seal line is a hearty single cartridge rotating metal bellows seal, designed for handling even the toughest operating conditions in refineries, petrochemical plants, and chemical plants.

The FSI 6080 is a double cartridge rotary metal bellows seal, double balanced to provide both pressurized and non-pressurized seal operation. The type 6090 seal is a heat-treated high temperature rotating metal bellows design, available as either a component seal or a cartridge mounted assembly.

No Dynamic O-Rings

Across the 6000 Series, all O-rings are static. Centralized face loading keeps the faces flat throughout all temperature and pressure ranges, and the rotating bellows design is self-cleaning through rotational expulsion of particulates.
