Chesterton 442C Split Seal now it’s had a Size Upgrade

Same Sealing Power, Larger Size Suitability

Chesterton 442C Split Seal has been launched as a brand new product in Chesterton mechanical split seal range. Chesterton understands that sealing is not a one-size-fits-all situation, and therefore we have put in the work to bring you seals of all shapes and sizes.

Based on the 442C ™ Cartridge Split Seal, the 442C™ XL has been developed for applications that require equipment with large diameters. Perfect for industries and machinery with larger, heavier equipment, you can now achieve the sealing reliability of the 442C™ throughout your warehouse with no size restrictions in place.

With proven reliability and low maintenance costs, this is the perfect product to step up your sealing efficiency!

But How Do Split Seals Work?

Chesterton split seals like these have superior sealing power, while remaining easy to install and maintain, thanks to their two-part hinge system.

The major advantage of the split seal design is that it allows you to install the seal with no dismantling of the pump (or equipment)—an enormous time-saver!

These new products contain:

Patented adjustable glands
Interlocking face alignment
Spring lifters and carriers
Patented automatic centering
and more!
