Shaft Size: Precision-fit for 5/8" (15.88mm) shafts
Compliance: Engineered to NFPA 20 guidelines for jockey pumps
Construction: Simple, reliable O-Ring Face design
Material: 304/316SS, Carbon/Ceramic faces, Buna-N/EPDM O-Rings
Reliability: Long standby life, instant start capability
This face mechanical seal is engineered as a direct OEM replacement for fire-protection jockey pumps (pressure maintenance pumps) with standard 5/8″ (15.88mm) shafts. Commonly specified as a 5 8 mechanical seal in NFPA 20-compliant systems, the O-ring face design uses a carbon rotating face against a ceramic stationary seat, with 304/316SS hardware and Buna-N or EPDM secondary seals. As a purpose-built jockey pump mechanical seal, it is designed for intermittent duty cycles, resists sediment clogging in stagnant fire-water lines, and provides immediate sealing upon start-up to maintain system pressure between fire pump runs.
Value: Cost-effective, direct OEM replacement
Key Features
• Jockey Pump Standard: Dimensioned for the 5/8″ shafts common in fire-protection jockey pumps. This jockey pump mechanical seal meets typical envelope dimensions for Grundfos JP, Aurora, and other NFPA 20-compliant units—no pump modification required.
• Quick Response: The O-ring secondary seal provides immediate face contact upon start-up, maintaining system pressure without leakage during the brief, intermittent runs typical of face mechanical seal applications in fire systems.
• Cost-Effective Reliability: A robust, economical 5 8 mechanical seal designed for long standby life and instant start capability, ideal for building sprinkler system maintenance contracts.
• Non-Clogging Design: The single coil spring is open-wound to resist clogging from sediment that may settle in stagnant fire-water lines—a common failure mode in low-cycle jockey pump service.
• Easy Installation: Component design matches the short working length of standard jockey pump stuffing boxes; simply drop in and tighten gland bolts—no special tools or sleeves needed.

FAQs
Q: Does this fit a Grundfos JP pump?
A: Many Grundfos JP models use a 5/8" or 16mm seal. Please check if your shaft is imperial (5/8") or metric (16mm). We stock both.
Q: Will this 5/8" face mechanical seal fit a Grundfos JP jockey pump?
A: Many Grundfos JP models use a 5/8″ (15.88mm) shaft seal. Some export versions use 16mm. Please verify your shaft diameter—imperial (5/8″) or metric (16mm). We stock both and can cross-reference by pump model.
Q: What is the difference between this O-ring face seal and a cartridge mechanical seal for jockey pumps?
A: This is a component face mechanical seal—compact, economical, and widely used in legacy jockey pumps. Cartridge seals enclose the same faces in a pre-assembled unit but cost more and require more axial space. Both are available from us.
Q: Is this 5 8 mechanical seal suitable for continuous-duty process pumps?
A: It is optimized for intermittent duty (jockey pumps). For continuous-duty water or chemical pumps, we recommend our balanced metal bellows or cartridge seal series.
Q: Do you provide a dimensional drawing for the 5/8" jockey pump mechanical seal?
A: Yes. CAD drawings and material certification are available upon request. Contact us with your pump make/model for confirmation.

Our company is specialized in the production of sealing materials, mechanical seals , cartridge seals.
