Bearing isolator is designed to protect the environment

An environmentally friendly bearing isolator designed for flooded and oil mist applications has been introduced by Garlock. The EnDuro design core features a bi-concave surface incorporated within a fluorocarbon stator, providing long life and reliable bearing protection. The seal prevents the loss of potentially environmentally harmful bearing lubrication, while also preventing contamination ingress in flooded or oil mist environments. Featuring three different sealing technologies in one compact, self-contained unit, the bearing isolator is designed to quickly and easily replace contact lip seals and traditional bearing isolators. It is available in shaft sizes ranging from 0.875 in. to over 6 in., with flanged, flangeless and custom configurations offered.
