SPEEDI-SLEEVE radial shaft seals are an ideal solution to restore malfunctioning sealing systems without requiring machine disassembly or shaft regrinding. These wear sleeves provide enhanced sealing system performance, improved reliability, and extended MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) for a wide range of applications including industrial gearboxes, fans, pumps, electric motors, off-highway & construction vehicle components, and mining & mineral processing equipment, among many others.
The seals benefit from a proprietary stainless steel material and manufacturing process offering increased strength and superior ductility. This results in an optimized sealing surface that minimizes wear on the sleeve and sealing lip during operation.
Standard sleeve sizes are available for shaft diameters from 0.472 to 8 in. (12 to 203 mm). All SPEEDI-SLEEVES install easily without special equipment and can return shafts to service within minutes at a fraction of the cost of traditional reworking. For highly abrasive environments and/or for applications integrating PTFE-filled seals, SPEEDI-SLEEVE is available in gold versions featuring a thin, metallic coating applied to the base stainless steel to promote increased durability.
