In the fast-paced world of industrial operations, a failed mechanical seal can bring production to a grinding halt. When a pump or other rotating equipment leaks, every moment of downtime translates directly to lost revenue. At EPM, we understand this urgency, which is why we've built our business around a singular promise: guaranteed satisfaction through a comprehensive and streamlined mechanical seal solution.

While our sales team provides the expertise to select the perfect seal for any new application, our core value proposition lies in our offsite mechanical seal repair and distribution services. We offer a lifeline to businesses facing unplanned downtime, providing a cost-effective and efficient alternative to a full replacement.

The Power of Our Offsite Repair Facility

Our dedicated repair facility is a hub of precision and expertise. Unlike a simple on-site fix, our offsite process allows our certified technicians to perform a meticulous, multi-step repair and refurbishment process that is simply not possible in the field.

  • Expert Diagnostics: Every seal that arrives at our facility undergoes a thorough inspection. Our technicians don't just look for the obvious damage; they conduct a root cause analysis to determine why the seal failed in the first place. This invaluable insight allows us to recommend material upgrades or procedural changes to prevent future failures, increasing your Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF).
  • Precision Refurbishment: Using state-of-the-art lapping and cleaning equipment, we restore seal faces to a "like new" condition, often exceeding industry standards for flatness and smoothness. We replace all worn-out components, including elastomers, springs, and set screws, with high-quality parts.
  • Cost-Effective Solutions: In many cases, repairing a seal can be a fraction of the cost of a brand new one. Our repair process is designed to save you money while delivering a product that performs as well as, or better than, its original condition.

Seamless Distribution: Your Lifeline in an Emergency

A repaired seal is only valuable if it can get back to you quickly. Our robust distribution network ensures rapid turnaround and delivery, minimizing your downtime. We maintain a large inventory of common seal components and a streamlined logistics process. When you send us a seal for repair, we provide a clear and concise quote, along with an estimated timeline. Once the repair is complete and the seal has passed rigorous quality control, we get it back to your site as fast as possible.

We understand that an emergency doesn't wait for a business day. Our responsive team is ready to assist you, ensuring that you have the right seal in your hands when you need it most.

Your Satisfaction, Our Guarantee

The combination of our offsite repair expertise and our efficient distribution network allows us to back our service with a guarantee of satisfaction. We are confident that our repaired seals will perform reliably, extending the life of your equipment and restoring your operations to full capacity.

Don't let a failed seal cost you more than it should. Partner with EPM for a complete solution that goes beyond a simple part—we provide the expertise, the service, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your equipment is in the hands of a trusted partner.
