Why Choose Us
Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals are engineered for reliability in high-temperature, high-pressure, and corrosive environments. The Type 606 John Crane Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals are specifically designed for demanding applications where traditional elastomer-based seals fail. These seals eliminate the need for secondary sealing elements like O-rings, making them ideal for extreme heat, cryogenic conditions, and aggressive chemicals.
✔ No elastomers – Eliminates degradation from heat and chemicals
✔ High-temperature resistance – Operates from -200°C to 450°C (-328°F to 842°F)
✔ Zero leakage – Welded metal bellows prevent fugitive emissions
✔ Long service life – Reduced maintenance and downtime
The Type 606 Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals utilize:
Bellows Material: Hastelloy C276, Inconel 718, or 316L stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
Seal Faces: Silicon carbide (SiC), tungsten carbide (WC), or diamond-coated for wear resistance.
Welded Construction: Laser-welded bellows ensure leak-free performance.
John Crane’s Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals undergo:
✔ CNC machining for dimensional accuracy
✔ Helium leak testing to confirm hermetic sealing
✔ Dynamic balancing for vibration-free operation
These seals excel in industries requiring zero-emission sealing solutions:
Refinery pumps handling hot hydrocarbons
Pipeline booster pumps in sour gas service (H₂S environments)
Sulfuric acid, caustic, and solvent pumps
High-temperature reactor feed pumps
Boiler feed pumps (up to 400°C / 750°F)
Geothermal steam applications
LNG transfer pumps (down to -160°C / -256°F)
Liquid nitrogen and oxygen pumps
Pre-Installation Checks
Verify seal size matches pump specifications.
Inspect shaft runout (must be ≤0.05mm).
Mounting the Seal
Slide the Metal Bellows Mechanical Seal onto the shaft without forcing.
Secure with manufacturer-recommended torque settings.
Final Adjustments
Remove shipping clips (if applicable).
Perform a dry run test to check alignment.
Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
---|---|---|
Excessive Heat | Dry running, misalignment | Check lubrication, realign pump |
Bellows Fatigue | Thermal cycling, overpressure | Replace with reinforced bellows |
Face Wear | Abrasive media, improper flush | Upgrade to SiC/SiC faces, adjust flush rate |
Maintenance Tips:
✔ Annual inspections for bellows integrity
✔ Vibration monitoring to detect early failure signs
✔ Flush system optimization for abrasive services
API 682 Compliance – Meets stringent industry standards for emissions control.
Customizable Designs – Available in multiple face materials and bellows configurations.
Global Support – John Crane provides 24/7 technical assistance and rapid spare parts delivery.
Final Recommendation:
For high-temperature, corrosive, or cryogenic applications, the Type 606 Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals deliver unmatched reliability. Their elastomer-free design ensures long-term performance where conventional seals fail.

Here are 10 professional Q&As about Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals
Q: What are the main advantages of Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals compared to conventional seals?
A: Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals offer three key advantages:
Superior temperature resistance (-200°C to 450°C)
Elimination of elastomers that degrade in harsh conditions
Zero leakage welded construction for emission control
These features make Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals ideal for refinery, chemical, and power generation applications.
Q: What materials are used in Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals for corrosive applications?
A: For corrosive services, we recommend Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals with:
Bellows: Hastelloy C276 or Inconel 625
Seal faces: Silicon carbide vs. silicon carbide
Hardware: Super duplex stainless steel
This combination provides excellent resistance to acids, caustics, and sour gas environments.
Q: How do I select the right Metal Bellows Mechanical Seal for high-temperature services?
A: Selection criteria for high-temperature Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals include:
Maximum operating temperature
Thermal cycling requirements
Pressure differentials
Process media compatibility
Our Type 606 seal with Inconel bellows and SiC faces is rated for continuous 450°C operation.
Q: What's the typical service life of Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals in refinery applications?
A: In refinery services, properly specified Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals typically achieve:
3-5 years in clean hydrocarbon services
2-3 years in catalytic slurry services

Flush system maintenance
Unlike conventional seals, they don't need O-ring replacements, reducing maintenance by 40-60%.
Q: How do I troubleshoot premature failure of Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals?
A: Common failure modes and solutions:
Bellows cracking: Check for thermal shock or overpressure
Face wear: Verify proper flush rate and alignment
Corrosion: Review material selection for media compatibility
Our field engineers can perform root cause analysis on failed Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals.
Q: What's the proper installation procedure for Metal Bellows Mechanical Seals?
A: Critical installation steps:
Verify shaft runout (<0.05mm)
Check chamber dimensions
Install per manufacturer torque specs
Remove all shipping restraints
Perform dry rotation test
