Log - LASDROP Shaft Seal

Details:

The Gen II offers exclusive features that make it the premier shaft seal on the market with the culmination of more than a quarter century of experience in shaft seal design.
The Gen II offers a unique ball-bearing drive system that allows the seal ring to "float" and remain in constant contact with the carbon graphite seal surface, resulting in a seal that's impenetrable to water.

• The Gen II uses a 316-marine grade stainless steel spring to provide pressure to the seal surfaces. Together, the spring and seal ring rotate along with the shaft, and remain secured in the Clamp/Pressure housing.

The Lasdrop Original “Bellows” seal is a face seal that features a vibration absorbing bellows, ideal for use on sailboats and workboats.
Specially balanced for smooth rotation, this model utilizes a 316 stainless steel and carbon graphite for its sealing surfaces.
Like all Lasdrop models, a water lubricated bearing is designed in the assembly to insure correct alignment with the shaft.

• The seal ring is 316 stainless steel, set in a counter bore in the assembly, eliminating metal to metal contact and risk of electrolysis.
