ViseSeal

Stabilizing Shafts, Conserving Water

ViseSeal solves two critical issues in rotating equipment sealed with packing: shaft instability and high water consumption. The innovative thermoplastic split-bearing design paired with our high-performance packing provide robust shaft support, reducing vibrations and enhancing equipment performance. Additionally, the ViseSeal system significantly reduces water usage, making your operations more efficient and sustainable.

Design Features & Benefits

Why the ViseSeal?

ViseSeal stands out for its superior shaft stabilization and unmatched water conservation.

It not only enhances your equipment’s performance by reducing vibrations but also makes your operations more environmentally friendly and cost-effective by significantly reducing water usage. Plus, with its easy field repacking feature, ViseSeal ensures longer Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) and less downtime.

Choose ViseSeal for a stable, sustainable, and efficient sealing solution.

4 Configuration Options

ViseSeal For Pumps (VSP)

ViseSeal For Pumps (VSP)

Features:

  • Two split/pinned ViseSeal bearings separated by packing and a removable lantern ring.
  • Die-formed rings of high-performance packings are compressed between the ViseSeal bearings.

Benefits:

The ViseSeal kits provide the following: reduced water consumption, shaft support, vibration dampening, shaft centering, eliminates packing extrusion, easy to maintain by removing the packing and lantern ring in the field for repacking, no pump removal for repack, reduced packing adjustments and longer MTBF.

ViseSeal Extended (EXV)

ViseSeal Extended (EXV)

Features:

  • A ViseSeal EXV kit contains a close tolerance ViseSeal bearing, a PTFE lantern ring, and high quality.
  • Die-formed packing rings.

Benefits:

  • Viseseal bearing protects soft packing from destructive shaft movement, vibration, and process interruptions.
  • The lantern ring can be removed for easy repacking (no more need to remove equipment to repack pumps).
  • Packing rings are free to seal without the need to support the shaft and deal with excessive shaft movement.
  • Longer MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure), less sleeve wear, longer packing life, and fewer packing adjustments.
ViseSeal EZ Vise (EZV)

ViseSeal EZ Vise (EZV)

Features:

  • A ViseSeal EZVkit contains a close clearance ViseSeal bearing, a ring of die-formed packing between the ViseSeal bearing and a PTFE lantern ring, die-formed packing rings outboard.

Benefits:

  • ViseSeal bearing reduces shaft movement, minimizes vibration and closes clearances in stuffing boxes.
  • Water consumption is reduced with packing ring on both sides of the lantern ring.
  • Packing lasts longer, with fewer adjustments.
  • Field repack without the need to remove equipment.
ViseSeal Dry Vise (DRV)

ViseSeal Dry Vise (DRV)

Features:

  • One split/pinned ViseSeal bearing from the bottom of the box with rings of high-quality die-formed packing.

Benefits:

  • TNo product dilution – shaft stabilization to protect packing.
