Balanced Metal Bellows Design Used in Harsh Chemical Services
This bellows seal enhances reliability by minimizing O-Ring concerns. The Chesterton 186 Bellows Seal is used primarily in the chemical and petrochemical industries.
The high-strength, low-spring-rate bellows core delivers low heat generation and reliable sealing performance. The self-cleaning, rotary bellows seal design will reduce the clogging associated with sealing fluids with solids in suspension.
