GW 260A OEM Mechanical Seal for APV Puma Pumps Size 1.0” and 1.5”
Overview:
The GW 260A is a precision-engineered OEM mechanical seal designed as a direct replacement for APV Puma series centrifugal pumps with 1.0” and 1.5” shaft sizes. It ensures reliable performance in demanding hygienic and industrial processing applications.
Product Description
+
The GW 260A mechanical seal maintains original equipment specifications while offering enhanced durability in challenging environments. Its optimized design handles viscous products, suspended solids, and mild abrasives commonly encountered in food, dairy, and pharmaceutical processing.
The precision-lapped sealing faces (carbon versus silicon carbide/ceramic) ensure minimal leakage and provide extended service life under rigorous conditions, including thermal cycling and frequent sterilization cycles. The cartridge-style construction simplifies installation, eliminates the need for complex setting measurements, and ensures immediate operational readiness. This design guarantees reliable performance with minimal friction and power consumption, reducing maintenance needs and total cost of ownership.
