V Ring Seal Sizes

Eriks offers v rings manufactured with four standard profiles.

V ring seal sizes.

The s type v rings are designed for shaft sizes up to 200 mm. V ring seals are available in a large variety of designs and sizes to fit the requirements of most applications. The construction of a v ring seal is divided into three parts. No special demands are placed on the surface finish of the shaft seating and the v rings act as flingers since they have an interference fit on the shaft and rotate with it.

All rubber v rings fig 1 or just called v rings. V rings are normally made of nitrile rubber. The a type v rings are designed for shaft sizes up to 2020 mm. A v ring is a solid rubber seal used on shafts to prevent dirt moisture and other unwanted material from entering an oil seal housing or any other desired area while simultaneously keeping lubricants in.

Skf supplies two types of v ring seals. For applications where higher temperatures occur or where aggressive media are present v rings made of fluoro rubber should be used. V ring seals are mounted on shafts and their thin tapered lip seals against a surface counterface at right angles to the shaft. V rings are mounted to the shaft and can be used as a face seal lip seal or more commonly as a flinger where centrifugal forces from the spinning shaft deflect fluids away from a counter face surface.

Made entirely of rubber v rings can be easily stretched to fit over assembled parts and one size can fit a number of shaft diameters.
