Buyer FAQs
Does RF Machining manufacture complete mechanical seals?
No. RF Machining supplies machined seal gland, packing gland and related gland components according to customer drawings, not complete mechanical seal assemblies.
Can you machine a mechanical seal gland from a drawing?
Yes. The drawing should show bolt-hole positions, register fits, bore dimensions, sealing faces, threads, material and inspection requirements.
Can surface treatment be arranged for gland components?
Surface treatment can be reviewed and arranged through partner processes when the drawing or RFQ specifies the requirement.
