Today it provides the most complete selection of engineered mechanical seals and sealing support systems for use in pumps, compressors and other rotating equipment, complemented by an expanding range of engineered bearings and power transmission couplings all of which are supported by the global John Crane sales and service network.
John Crane is a globally recognised and trusted name. The John Crane business has 20 manufacturing sites and more than 6,000 employees, located in 50 countries.
The chemical processing industry’s focus on emissions reduction and reliability are well served by our market-leading portfolio of high performance, low emission selaing products, which provide significant improvement in equipment life and environmental control.
John Crane’s proprietary materials and clean-in-place designs are used throughout the food processing, bottling, brewing, and distilling industries.
Our family of slurry seals are designed to provide maximum reliability even in the harshest, abrasive slurry environments.
Oil refineries, pipelines, and gas plants choose John Crane for their most arduous applications. Equipment reliability is a key driver of financial performance, and John Crane product innovations provide the foundation for significant improvement in Mean Time Between Repair (MTBR).
John Crane pump and specialty mixer seals provide pharmaceutical manufacturers with high performance, clean-in-place solutions for their critical applications.
Whether it’s a nuclear, fossil fuel or hydro plant, John Crane’s sealing products ensure uninterrupted, reliable performance on boiler feed water, slurry, and flue gas desulphurization services.
John Crane addresses papermaking problems with proven solutions that service the industry’s unique variety of equipment. Our designs are ideally suited to reduce water consumption and environmental pollution.
John Crane pioneered the development of metal bellows seals for refrigeration compressors to meet the demands imposed by new refrigerants and strict leakage controls on ozone-depleting gases. Today, our seals are fitted on the majority of new compressors manufactured.
Since the early introduction of elastomer bellows mechanical seals, John Crane has been the leading supplier to manufacturers building pumps for residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural water systems. As these applications become more demanding we continue to innovate with more robust designs and improved materials to meet the need for higher pressures, corrosion, and abrasion.
