Reduce your Leak Points with Swagelok Seal Support Components
Nearly 40%1 of all unscheduled critical pump shutdowns are caused by mechanical seal failures. While all seals leak, mechanical seals and mechanical seal support systems help control leakage, saving money, reducing labor, and improving safety.

Since API 682 4th edition supports the use of tubing for mechanical seal support systems, it’s easier than ever to ensure increased uptime and decreased maintenance of your mechanical seals. Our innovative use of components reduces threaded connections where costly leaks can occur.
With less downtime and fewer leaks, Swagelok Seal Support components help keep your rotating equipment running efficiently. Our 2-inch and under components replace traditional threaded and welded pipe connections with bent tubing, tube fittings, and other quality parts. Custom configurations and critical spares are available through Swagelok Calgary | Vancouver | Red Deer | Medicine Hat | Prince George.
