Grundfos CR Mechanical Seals-12mm 16mm 22mm
Grundfos CR Mechanical Seal | Balanced Cartridge-Type Shaft Seal
The Grundfos CR mechanical seal features a balanced cartridge-type design with unitized construction for fast, reliable installation and replacement. Its pre-assembled structure helps simplify alignment, reduce installation errors, and minimize pump downtime.
Designed with durable sealing faces, this mechanical seal provides dependable performance in demanding industrial pumping applications. In many cases, the seal can be replaced without removing the pump motor or dismantling the wetted components.
Key Features
- Cartridge-type construction – Pre-assembled as a complete unit for easier installation and alignment.
- Balanced seal design – Helps equalize hydraulic pressure across the seal faces, reducing friction and wear in high-pressure applications.
- Durable sealing faces – Common SiC/SiC, Car/Sic, TC/TC configurations provide excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
- Multiple elastomer options – Available with EPDM, Viton, and other elastomer materials to suit different fluids and temperature conditions.
- Reduced maintenance time – The cartridge design allows efficient seal replacement using standard service tools.
