V-Rings
V-Ring is a one-piece seal which is mounted on a shaft and seals axially against a counter face and normally rotates with the shaft.It is a rubber ring for shafts requiring a dynamic seal in the axial direction. The body of V seals rotate with the shaft and holds itself in position by its elastic fit on the shaft. Sealing is produced by the contact between the lip and the counter face.
Additionally, the V Series seal has good sealing action when the shaft is eccentric and/or there is some misalignment. Combined with radial shaft seals, these axial face seal designs provide excellent excluding characteristics against all types of liquids, greases, oils, dirt, snad and other foreign materials.V-rings are flexible rubber seals that stretch-fit onto the shaft and rotate with the shaft against a counter face. They are specifically designed to protect the primary seal from contaminants. These seals are not designed to seal pressure differentials or to seal against fluid levels; they are primarily for contaminants exclusion. The seal design utilizes centrifugal force to prevent intrusion of contaminants into the bearing chamber.
