John Crane Type 2 Elastomer Bellows Mechanical Seal Replacement
Key Features
• Short Working Length: A compact version of the Type 1 with shorter installed length. The John Crane Type 2 seal equivalent fits pumps where the standard Type 1 is too long – no housing modification required.
• Positive Drive: Uses the same reliable elastomer bellow drive principle as the original elastomer bellows seal, absorbing shaft end-play and misalignment while transmitting torque through the bellow drive band and notches.
• Cost-Effective: This John Crane Type 2 seal replacement delivers identical performance to the OEM at a fraction of the cost. Available in metric (10–100mm) and inch sizes with Carbon/Ceramic/SiC/TC face options and NBR/Viton/EPDM elastomers.
• Non-Clogging Spring: Large single coil spring is mounted externally and resists fouling from hard water scale or light slurries – more reliable than enclosed multi-spring designs in dirty water service common to elastomer bellow mechanical seal applications.
• Shaft Protection: The elastomer bellow covers the shaft area under the seal, protecting against corrosion and fretting – a key advantage over packed glands and open O-ring seals.

Case Study
Heating Systems: A district heating provider needed a short seal for older circulation pumps. The Type 1 was too long. Our John crane type 2 seal fit perfectly, restoring the pumps to service without machining the housing.
Testimonials
Hard to find these short John crane type 2 seal seals anymore. Glad you stock them. They save us from replacing the whole pump.

FAQs about John Crane Type 2 Replacement Seal
Q: How do I distinguish Type 1 from Type 2?
A: The main difference is the installed working length. Type 2 is significantly shorter. Measure the distance from the face to the back of the spring to confirm.
Q: What are the standard operating limits for this John crane type 2 seal?
A: The standard Type 2 replacement operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +150°C(extendable to 200°C with FKM/Viton) and a maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa (10 bar). For higher-pressure applications (up to 29 bar), a balanced Type 2B configuration is recommended.
Q: Do you supply John Crane Type 2 seal replacements as a manufacturer with factory direct price?
A: Yes. MIAOYU is an ISO 9001 certified manufacturer of elastomer bellow mechanical seals in China. We supply direct to pump distributors, OEMs and MRO buyers at factory prices with OEM/private label options and fast global shipping.
