Sims Pump Valve Company Component
SIMSITE® Split Stabilizing Bushing
Two-piece SIMSITE bushing pressed into the seal chamber to stabilize the shaft and extend seal, bearing and motor life.

Key features

- Radial grooves reduce seal chamber pressure and keep particulates from seal faces
- Axial grooves improve lubrication and vent air and heat
- Embedded loose graphite adds lubricity
- Reduces shaft deflection and vibration
Applications
Retrofit in centrifugal pumps to extend seal, bearing and motor life.
