    DETAILS & SPECIFICATIONS

    Product Detail

    +
    The GW GU1 features a versatile modular cartridge platform that allows for adaptable sealing solutions across a wide range of equipment. Its key advantage lies in the self-aligning seal face design, which compensates for minor shaft or housing misalignment, promoting even face wear and extended service life. This design is particularly well-suited for applications utilizing barrier fluids such as water, steam, grease, or compatible oils.

    Supplied as a complete, ready-to-install unit, every GW GU1 cartridge undergoes rigorous factory testing prior to shipment, guaranteeing operational integrity and reducing commissioning time. It is engineered to deliver OEM-equivalent performance as a direct interchange for the AES CURC seal, providing a cost-effective alternative without compromising on reliability or sealing efficiency.

    *Installation Note: Confirm equipment compatibility and barrier fluid specifications prior to installation. Handle the pre-set cartridge with care to maintain face alignment.
