The Life Guard silicon carbide seal lives up to its name by protecting your pump from seal failure. It lasts up to 8 times longer than ceramic seals when used in abrasive solutions. The silicon carbide surfaces work together to provide excellent thermal conductivity, making it last up to 21 times longer in dry-run situations than ceramic seals.
The Life Guard silicon carbide seal comes standard in all stainless steel centrifugal pumps and is available as an option on cast iron and poly models.
