V-Rings VR-VLX

Description

Rotary sealing element manufactured entirely from elastomer. The seal consists of a body and a front sealing lip. The elasticity of the body, combined with the interference fit with the shaft, keeps the seal securely in place and rotating with the shaft, without the need for a specific housing. More compact than type VL for confined spaces.

Assembly

The installation process is very simple. The VLX-type v-ring joint should be slightly stretched and slide along the shaft. It can be done manually or with a simple tool. The lip of the gasket should be lubricated. The shaft should preferably be dry and free of oil and grease.

Advantages

Designed for compact and confined installation spaces.
Excellent dynamic sealing performance thanks to the front sealing lip.
Suitable as a primary sealing element or in combination with radial shaft seals.
Capable of compensating small axial displacements as well as angular and radial misalignments.
Direct installation on the shaft without the need for a specific housing.
Friction decreases as peripheral speed increases.
High body elasticity ensuring secure retention by interference fit with the shaft.
Effective protection against dust, dirt, oil splashes, grease, and water.

Materials

Available in NBR, FKM, CR, HNBR and VMQ materials, with hardnesses between 60 and 80 Shore. These compounds offer an optimal combination of flexibility, chemical resistance and thermal stability, enabling reliable performance against dust, splashes, oils, greases and atmospheric agents. Its elastic structure guarantees adequate adaptation to the shaft and an effective seal even in the event of misalignments or vibrations.
