Mechanical Seal Style MLC3
Multi-Lip Cartridge Seal For Challenging Applications
For Challenging Applications
Viscous substances like syrups, tars, oils, resins, and glues can often cause problems for regular mechanical seals. Until now, simple lip seal designs have been the preferred choice for dealing with these substances, which are far thicker than what most mechanical seals are designed to handle. Flexaseal’s MLC3 multi-lip cartridge seal combines the best of both technologies, bringing you a game-changing solution.
Our MLC3 cartridge seal gets the job done more effectively, sealing across a broad range of speeds with longer life in service compared to other products. As an added benefit, the MLC3 requires virtually no seal support system, saving you time and effort.

Why the MLC3?
- Non-clogging, proprietary engineered lip seals resist shearing and provide a reliable seal over the integrated hard-coated shaft sleeve.
- Anti-rotation rings in the lip seals provide exceptional static sealing ability.
- Energized O-ring maintains a seal and prevents leakage with viscosity changes in the process.
- Proprietary lip seal material, PTFE-ML, is not only suited for aggressive chemicals and viscous abrasives, but also complies with GMP, FDA, and EU standards.
- Easy to install cartridge design for quick and simple fit-ups.
- Field repairs are simplified with readily-available spare parts kits.
Our PTFE-ML seal can tolerate:
| Axial movement: | ±.125” |
| Max. runout: | ±.020″ TIR (Typical) ±.025″ TIR (Low speeds) |
| Vacuum: | 25mm Hg |
