TYPE MS2	FLANGED CARTRIDGE SEALS	TYPE MS5	COST EFFECTIVE "O" RING SEALS
	Type MS2 flange-mounted cartridge seal is a complete package, totally enclosed in a steel or brass case. It has been designed and constructed for heavy duty service in gear boxes, speed reducers, heavy construction equipment, machine tools and garbage disposers. Mating ring seal drive and flange mounting are assembled at the factory as one unit, making it easy to install and convenient for field service.		Type MS5 is designed primarily for reliable service in aircraft, engine and accessories, missiles, gear boxes, transmissions, machine tools, construction equipment, industrial pumps, grinders, marine applications, electric motors, and electric cars. Full drive-notch engagement in the carbon cross section provides exceptionally long service life and low cost.
TYPE MS3	HEAVY DUTY SEAL	TYPE MTS6	MACHINE TOOL SEALS (PRESS FIT HOUSING)
	Type MS3 units are precision seals, designed for heavy duty use in machine tools, aircraft, missile, gear boxes, dynamometers, compressors and commercial applications. Ideal for helicopter transmission and main rotor seals.		Type MTS6 seal will provide rugged, maintenance free service with excellent oil retention for machine tools, gear boxes and other industrial equipment. Primary use are milling machines, lathes, etc., where long seal life is critical.
TYPE MTS7	FLANGED MACHINE TOOL SEALS	TYPE MS30	PRESS FIT SEAL FOR FLUID OR GAS
	Type MS7 seal will provide exceptional maintenance free service, under the severest operational requirements. It offers positive oil retention means in heavy machine tools, gear boxes and other types of industrial equipment. Primary use milling machines, lathes, etc.		Type MS30 is an economical, press fit seal, designed for use in fluid or gas sealing of high R.P.M. shafts. Design features include sufficient clearance over shaft to allow for insulation sleeves and a mechanically locked construction, enabling the seal to withstand accidental pressure reversals. Common uses include pool pumps, chemical pumps and gear boxes.
TYPE MS8	METAL BELLOWS SEALS	TYPE MS30& 31	COMPACT STATIONARY SEAL
	Type MS8 is a precision-welded bellows seal designed for applications of speed and temperature found in turbine and nuclear devices. Materials used for the manufacture of metal bellows guarantee that they will have the following characteristics: workability, pressure resistance, corrosion resistance and reliability. Used in deep sea units, cryogenic chemical plants and pumps. Carbon insert not shown.		Type MS30 & 31 is an economical, press fit seal, designed for use in fluid or gas sealing of high R.P.M. shafts. Design features include sufficient clearance over shaft to allow for insulation sleeves and a mechanically locked construction, enabling the seal to withstand accidental pressure reversals. Common uses include fire pumps and high speed general pumps. Uses a rubber cup to seal bore.
TYPE MS9	COMPACT AIRCRAFT SEAL	TYPE MS32	COMPACT ROTATING SEAL
	Type MS9 seal is similar to our MS5, except it is made to fit in a more confined space. It can be easily disassembled for cleaning or repair without replacing the entire seal. Ideal for pumps, compressors or aerospace components where long life is required. Capable of taking high pressure and temperatures up to 500° F.		Type MS32, when coupled with a stationary mating ring, provides for excellent fluid or gas sealing under a wide variety of operating conditions. Features include an interlocking body to minimize strains on the bellow during high torque start ups and carbon face is held against the bellows to allow for pressure reversals. Common applications are chemical pumps, water well pumps, circulation pumps and gear boxes, etc.
TYPE MS33	METRIC GENERAL PURPOSE SEAL FOR GAS OR LIQUID PUMPS	TYPE MS33	STANDARD GENERAL PURPOSE SEAL FOR GAS OR LIQUID PUMPS
	Type MS33, is a general purpose economical seal designed for use in fluid or gas sealing of rotating shafts. Removable spring construction allows for greater variation in operating length using the same seal head assembly. Common applications include pool pumps, chemical pumps, sea water pumps and gear boxes.		Type MS33, is a general purpose economical seal designed for use in fluid or gas sealing of rotating shafts. Removable spring construction allows for greater variation in operating length using the same seal head assembly. Common applications include pool pumps, chemical pumps, sea water pumps and gear boxes.
TYPE VMS15	MAGNETIC SEAL	TYPE MS34	BALANCED SERIES GENERAL PURPOSE SEAL FOR GAS OR LIQUID
	Used in aircraft gear boxes where space is limited. An assortment of non-magnetic materials are used to contain the magnets, allowing for a variation of pull (similar to a spring). also good to remove ferrous particles from fluid. Ideal use for turbo machinery.		Type MS34, is a general purpose, economical balanced seal designed for use in fluid or gas pumps. Spring construction allows for greater variations in operating lengths, using the same seal head assembly. The seal is effective at high pressures due to its balance.
TYPE MS35	SHORT SERIES FOR NAVY SHIPBOARD PUMP APPLICATIONS	TYPE MS36	LONG SERIES FOR NAVY SHIPBOARD PUMP APPLICATIONS
	Type MS35, is a general purpose, economical balanced seal designed for Navy use in fluid sealing of rotating shafts. Removable spring construction allows for greater variation in operating length using the same seal head assembly. This seal is effective at relatively high pressures and used with a short spring in a compact seal cavity. Common applications include chemical and sea water pumps.		Type MS33, is a general purpose economical seal designed for use in fluid or gas sealing of rotating shafts. Removable spring construction allows for greater variation in operating length using the same seal head assembly. Common applications include pool pumps, chemical pumps, sea water pumps and gear boxes.
