V-Rings at NewDealSeals

V-Rings, the go-to axial seals for shafts and bearings, offer reliable protection against external elements such as dust, dirt, and splashing liquids. On this page, we’ll explore the versatile world of V-Rings, their suitability for specific applications, and why they are an excellent alternative to leading brand names like Frontseal®.

What Are V-Rings?

V-Rings are robust rubber face seals specifically designed to provide axial sealing against a counter face. These seals are highly effective in shielding shafts and bearings from contaminants, making them a trusted choice in various industries.

How V-Rings Work

V-Rings are mounted directly on the shaft and seal against a counter surface. They are intentionally produced slightly smaller than the shaft, allowing them to clamp securely onto it. The seal’s lip prevents external contaminants from entering, ensuring the shaft’s integrity. As rotational speeds increase, centrifugal forces act on the sealing lip, reducing contact pressure. This unique effect enables V-Rings to be used at higher rotational speeds with minimal friction losses.

 

Advantages of V-Rings:

  • No Shaft Wear: V-Rings are designed to protect your shaft without causing any wear or damage.
  • Low Friction: These seals offer low friction, ensuring efficient operation and reduced energy consumption.
  • High Rotational Speeds: V-Rings can handle high rotational speeds, making them suitable for applications with demanding speed requirements.
  • No Special Shaft Requirements: Unlike some sealing solutions, V-Rings don’t require specialized grooves on the shaft, simplifying installation.
  • Durability: V-Rings are known for their exceptional durability, providing long-lasting sealing performance.
  • Easy to mount.
  • Single element sealing solution.
  • Friction decreases as speed increases due to centrifugal force.
