- Construction /Design: Parts are Machined from 316L Stainless Steel Investment casting or Bar Stock
- Impeller & Final Shafts : For increased wear resistance the rotor shaft is plasma Sprayed with a Chromium Oxide Coating on Stainless Steel
- Shaft & Gearbox Bushings: Rotor Shaft Thrust is absorbed by a Tungsten Carbide Bushing. Gearbox Bushings are a Carbon Filled Reinforced Polyphenylenesulfide.
- Bearings:Bearings in the rotating Tee and Nozzle Housings are self lubricating carbon fiberreinforcedPolyphenylene sulfide.
- Bearing Cups: Main Body Castings are protected by replaceable 316 L Stainless Steel Cupsfor extended frictional wear life.
- Static Seals: O-Ring materials are selected for each application. Viton is standard with Kalisz & EPDM available. Other materials can be supplied on special order.
- Dynamic Seals: Dynamic Shaft Seals are Spring Loaded double lipped and made of PTFE. They are reinforced with Carbon Fiber for extra long wear and protection against leakage, abrasion and residue buildup.
