Can a mechanical seal be repaired?

Most mechanical seals can be repaired, and Flexaseal repairs seals from all major manufacturers, not only its own products.

Every seal that comes into Flexaseal’s repair facilities goes through a detailed five-step process: 

  • Careful disassembly
  • Examination of components for wear and damage
  • Failure analysis communicated to the customer
  • Repair estimate options including like-new restoration or exchange to a Flexaseal seal
  • Final reassembly

Flexaseal has dedicated engineering staff for reverse engineering competitor seals and vertically integrated machining and lapping capabilities across all repair locations.

Repair programs typically cost 30%–50% less than purchasing a new OEM seal. If a seal cannot be repaired, Flexaseal will quote a new replacement or offer an exchange program.

Contact us, and we will evaluate your seal for repair options.
