R3 Assembly Seal

Robust Assembly Seals for Pumps

Our innovative R3 Assembly Seal is the ideal solution for all the constant pump leaks in your industrial unit. The shafts of any pump are a sensitive area where liquid constantly exerts force and damages the rotating parts. A good assembly seal for pumps strengthens rotating shafts, ensuring that no leaks occur and water is effectively channeled to the right location.

At Robco, we provide all kinds of seal solutions that last, and the R3 seal is no different. The singular large spring ensures that minor misalignments don’t bring down the whole network; the distributed torque mechanism ensures adequate force to withstand high pressure, and the carbon holder is crimped for retention sans adhesives. All of these minute details come together to create an excellent assembly seal.

We offer only high-quality assembly seals for pumps because we recognize how important it is for your machinery to function flawlessly.
