Rubber V-Rings are commonly used as dynamic seals for shafts that require sealing in the axial direction. The elastic fit of the V-shaped ring ensures that it remains in position while rotating with the shaft. The lip of the V-ring makes contact with the counterface, creating a seal. These seals work well when the shaft is eccentric or misaligned. V-Rings, when combined with radial shaft seals, are excellent at excluding liquids, greases, oils, dirt, and other foreign materials. We offer V-Rings made from both Buna N and Viton rubber.
