Mechanical Seal Specialist in Manchester
Seal supply, specification and failure analysis from an engineer with 45 years in engineering and 36 years in sealing. Dispatch typically takes 2 to 3 days unless the item is stocked.
What we do for Manchester sites
Mechanical seal supply
Cartridge seals, component seals, edge welded metal bellows seals and FFKM O rings, supplied to DIN EN 12756 and API 682 where required.
Seal failure analysis
Send us the failed seal and the duty conditions. We identify the root cause rather than sell you the same seal again.
Despatch
Dispatch typically takes 2 to 3 days unless the item is stocked.
Refurbishment and reverse engineering
Obsolete or hard to source seals rebuilt to original duty, often at a fraction of the cost of a new OEM unit.
Areas we cover
Outside the North West we despatch UK wide, and through partner stockists internationally.
Industries we work with locally
Why a local seal specialist matters
Most seal failures are not product failures. They are specification failures, the wrong material for the chemistry, the wrong face combination for the abrasion level, the wrong flush plan for the operating temperature. Being close to your site means we can look at the failed part, talk through the duty conditions and get the right seal on the pump quickly.
You speak to the engineer who specifies the seal. No sales process, no account manager.
Manchester seal supply questions
Do you supply mechanical seals across Greater Manchester?
Yes. We are based in Manchester and supply mechanical seals, gaskets and O rings across Greater Manchester, the North West and the rest of the UK. Dispatch typically takes 2 to 3 days unless the item is stocked.
Can you help if a pump seal keeps failing?
That is the work we do most. Repeat failures are usually specification failures, not product failures. We look at the chemistry, temperature, face combination and flush plan against the original design intent before recommending anything.
Do you supply seals for obsolete pumps?
Yes. We reverse engineer obsolete and hard to source seals from a sample or a drawing, and can refurbish existing cartridges where the hardware is sound.
Who will I be dealing with?
Andrew Sykes MCGI, with 45 years in engineering and 36 years in sealing. There is no call centre in between.
