The PSS Shaft Seal is the leading marine mechanical seal worldwide, installed as standard equipment by many reputable boat builders and yards. Recognized as the premier retrofit seal on the market, the PSS Shaft Seal helps eliminate maintenance and costs associated with traditional packing-type glands. It ensures a completely water-tight seal that reduces water in the bilge and minimizes wear on the propeller shaft.

This innovative mechanical face seal is formed between the stainless steel rotor and the stationary carbon flange, allowing for flexibility that compensates for misalignment and vibration. The PSS Shaft Seal is designed for easy retrofitting and is compatible with shafts ranging from 3/4" (20mm) to 6" (150mm).

Maintenance Note: Regular inspections of the bellows are essential to check for signs of wear or chemical deterioration. PYI recommends replacing the PSS bellows every six years. In environments with non-sealed batteries that emit sulfuric acid, more frequent inspections may be necessary due to accelerated rubber deterioration.

The Maintenance Kit includes essential items for maintaining your PSS Shaft Seal: one (1) PSS bellow, two (2) O-rings, five (5) set screws, four (4) new hose clamps, and an allen key. Proper maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity.

The PSS Shaft Seal is a marine mechanical seal designed to provide a watertight barrier for propeller shafts. This component is suitable for marine applications requiring a reliable seal to minimize water ingress into the bilge and reduce wear on the propeller shaft. It is engineered for 2-inch shaft diameters and accommodates stern tubes with diameters ranging from 3-1/4 inches to 3-3/8 inches. The seal operates via a mechanical face between a stainless steel rotor and a stationary carbon flange, designed to compensate for minor misalignment and vibration. This product, part number 02-200-314, is intended for IT and procurement professionals managing marine equipment maintenance or new builds, offering a solution to replace traditional packing glands. Its design facilitates straightforward retrofitting, and it includes a maintenance kit to support its recommended six-year service interval.
