Latest Information
Dave Bamforth of the specialist car restoration and repairs company, Sunbeam-Talbot Spares (Barnsley, UK), came to us with their struggle of finding a suitable replacement Mechanical Seal for a water pump inside a 1950s Sunbeam-Talbot® 90 Mk2A (pictured, right).
Producing a direct replacement was one solution but the costs involved for us to manufacture a single bespoke seal was of course not viable.
Searching for a better solution, our technicians worked with Dave and on the same day we proposed a quick and minor modification to the car’s water pump. This allowed for the installation of one of our standard range, stock guaranteed Mechanical Seals: Vulcan Seals Type 73 (pictured, left).
Next day, Dave received the seal and the pump was soon fixed and running again without leakage.
This saved Sunbeam-Talbot Spares significant time and costs in restoring this vintage car, and will help toward future repairs of this sort.
We are always committed to working with customers to find optimal solutions, for achieving the best quality and value.
