ABSTRACT:
This specification discloses a mechanical bellows seal in which torsional forces acting upon the bellows unit are opposed and minimized by a circumferential biasing device. Through appropriate structure, the biasing means constrains the opposite ends of the bellows for joint rotation, minimizing vibrational forces and slip-stick phenomenon of such seals in highly viscous fluid sealing environments.
