Metal Bellows

Product Code: MB03   Semi Cartridge Mechanical Seal

DESCRIPTION

The Cosmos Metal Bellow Semi-Cartridge Mechanical Seal is a robust, welded or edge-welded bellow design, eliminating the need for dynamic O-rings. It is ideal for high-temperature and corrosive applications where elastomers may fail. The semi-cartridge arrangement ensures easy installation while remaining cost-effective compared to full cartridge seals.

FEATURES
  • No dynamic elastomers – suitable for high-temperature and vacuum.
  • Welded or formed metal bellows – flexible, pressure-balanced sealing.
  • Corrosion-resistant bellows material – usually SS316L, AM350, Hastelloy, Inconel, etc.
  • Available in single, double, and cartridge designs.
  • Axial movement compensation via bellows flexure.
ADVANTAGES
  • No fretting damage (no dynamic O-rings)
  • Handles thermal expansion
  • Compact axial design
  • Ideal for hazardous, viscous, or polymerizing media
