Abstract:
A seal assembly includes a first and second seats. The first seat includes an axial portion extending circumferentially around a center axis and extending axially from a first end to a second end. A radial portion extends circumferentially around the axial portion and extends radially from the axial portion between the first end and the second end. A cavity is formed in the radial portion and extends circumferentially around the axial portion. A second seat includes a radial segment extending circumferentially around the center axis and extending radially from an inner surface to an outer surface of the radial segment. An axial segment extends circumferentially around the first end of the first seat, and extends axially from the radially segment to a distal end. The axial segment includes a tapered outer surface that tapers radially inward toward the distal end. The distal end is received in the cavity.
