MG9 Rubber Bellows Pump Seal
The MG9 Rubber Bellows Pump Seal offers reliable performance for various industrial pumping applications with its innovative design and material flexibility.
Core Configuration Selection Recommendations
Bellows Material - The Core Factor Determining Seal Life
The performance of the MG9 seal is highly dependent on the elastomer compound. Selection must be based on fluid compatibility and temperature requirements.
| Material Option |
Optimal Service Conditions |
Media to Avoid |
Procurement Consideration |
| Nitrile Rubber (NBR) |
Cost-sensitive applications with water, oils, greases at temperatures ≤ 80°C |
Ozone, ketones, esters, strong oxidizing agents |
The economical choice for standard water and oil services |
| Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) |
Hot water, steam, alkaline solutions, cold water, low-pressure steam at temperatures ≤ 120°C |
Mineral oils, greases, most hydrocarbon solvents |
Primary choice for hot water/steam duties, offers excellent aging resistance |
| Fluoroelastomer (FKM/Viton®) |
Broad range of chemicals, oils, high-temperature media. Good temperature resistance up to ~180°C (varies by grade) |
Hot water/steam (risk of hydrolysis), ketones, ammonia |
General-purpose chemical resistance. Strong overall performance, a common industrial standard |
Procurement Advice: Never order by the base model "MG9" alone. The material suffix code is critical. Always specify the full compound designation, e.g., MG9-EPDM or MG9-FKM.
Seal Face Combination - Influencing Wear Resistance & Heat Dissipation
Standard & Cost-Effective
Silicon Carbide (SiC) / Resin-Impregnated Carbon-Graphite
Suitable for the vast majority of applications with clean fluids (water, chemicals without hard particles). This is the most cost-effective procurement option.
Enhanced Wear-Resistant
Silicon Carbide (SiC) / Silicon Carbide (SiC)
Recommended for media containing fine suspended solids (e.g., cooling tower water, water with slight impurities). This pairing significantly extends service life. Although the initial procurement cost is higher, the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) may be lower due to reduced downtime and replacement frequency.
