1.4 Segmented rings have matched joints and must be mated together per the segment

numbering scheme shown in Figure 2 for 3 segment rings. During assembly, keep all

numbers facing the same direction. The polished side is a sealing surface and should

be handled carefully.

or shaft.

1.5 Use caution when handling heavy gland ring halves. Maneuver and support large

parts carefully to avoid personal injury and/or damage to segmented rings.

centerline should be within 0.25 mm per

25 mm shaft diameter (0.010” per 1” shaft

diameter). Seal chamber face surface

finish should be 125 RMS or better.

Shaft runout should not exceed 0.10 mm

(0.004”) FIM. Shaft surface finish should
