MECO SHAFT SEALS

With nearly four decades of experience designing and manufacturing custom shaft seals, MECO seals are trusted by food, plastics, chemical, battery filler, pulp & paper, and building materials manufacturers worldwide, where we effectively eliminate common issues experienced with other mechanical seals, mechanical packing, and lip seals.

As our customers can attest, MECO seals produce measurably positive impacts on maintenance costs, machine availability, product quality and energy consumption.

WOODEX BEARINGS

Made of durable rock maple and impregnated with petroleum wax for permanent lubrication, Woodex bearings offer a cost-effective alternative to synthetic options without sacrificing quality or performance.

As the wood bearing’s interface heats and cools during normal operation, the natural capillary action of the material releases lubricant. When sand or grit enters, the wood compresses to absorb it, cover it with oil, and prevent the substance from causing damage.

Woodex bearings are proven reliable in wet and dry screw- and roll-conveying machinery and across demanding industries like manufacturing and agriculture. They are shaft-friendly, quiet, and sustainable — and they fit precisely without shims.

Woodex manufactures direct replacements for Arguto® and Pobco® oil-impregnated wood bearings.
