DESCRIPTION
4240c Mechanical Seal (PS-4240) — 5/8″ (Goulds 10K10)
The 4240c mechanical seal is a direct-fit 5/8″ shaft seal, the PS-4240 equivalent, cross-referenced to Goulds 10K10. It is built to OEM-equivalent standards or higher with a Type 166 footprint and a machined carbon face for longer service life.
Machined Carbon Face
Our 4240c uses a precision-machined, resin-impregnated carbon face — not the molded plastic/phenolic carbon found in standard equivalents — for smoother sealing and longer life. For the standard molded carbon version, see our 680c seal.At a Glance
