Phenolic Resin Guide Rings

Phnolic guide rings manufactured as split rings to aid in installation, they are designed to carry to load created in hardware situations that involve side loading due to equipment weight, eccentric loading and misalignment. Phenolic guide rings are incorporated into seal system designs for two main reasons. First, wear rings prevent metal-to-metal contact from occurring. Secondly, wear rings isolate seal components from uneven loading allowing optimum performance.
