The V-Ring is an all rubber seal protected with metal ring for rotating shaft. Its flexible, conical shaped lip rotates with the shaft and seals axially against a stationary counterface.

Advantages

• Easy to be fitted
• Low friction and very low power losses
• Can be used even with considerable end play and shaft misalignment
• No shaft wear
• Capability of running dry in low speed applications
• One size of V-ring can be used for many shaft sizes
• Further protection with metal ring

The fitting of the V-ring is very simple, and operation can be made with or without axial support stretching and pushing it along the shaft.
