P.Y.I. Inc. Offers Mechanical

Seal To Replace Stuffing Box

The P.S.S. (Packless Sealing Sys- tem), manufactured by P.Y.I., Inc. of

Edmonds, Wash., has recently in- creased its range of seals to accom- modate shafts up to eight inches in diameter. The manufacturer claims there are three advantages to using its product. First, the seal elimi- nates all shaft wear, as there is no friction. Second, the seal reportedly requires no maintenance or adjust- ment, and several users report in excess of 30,000 operation. Finally,

P.Y.I, claims the P.S.S. system will eliminate water accessing the bilge through the stern tube.
