V-Rings | V-Ring Seals

V-rings are axial seals for shafts and bearings. V-rings seal axially against a counter face. The V-ring is reliable and effective against for instance dust, dirt and splashing water or oil. NewDealSeals supplies various types of V-Rings, thus providing alternatives for brand names such as Frontseal®.

How do V-Rings work?

How do V-Rings work?

V-rings are rubber face seals. The V-ring is mounted on the shaft and seals the counter surface. A V- ring is produced slightly smaller than the shaft itself, causing it to clamp onto the shaft. The lip of the seal prevents liquids and dust from the outside. When the rotational speeds increases, centrifugal forces act on the sealing lip which reduces contact pressure. This effect allows the V-rings to be used at higher rotational speeds at very low friction losses.
