V-ring is an axial seal made of all rubber, mainly used for dust, water and oil proof sealing on rotating shafts or bearings. It is shaped like a "V", hence the name.
Application areas: motor shaft seal, pump shaft dustproof, reducer and gearbox, agricultural machinery and equipment, wind power generation equipment
V-ring is a fully rubber flexible sealing element, which is installed on the rotating shaft, and the sealing lip is attached to the surface of the stationary mating part (such as the bearing cover or end cover), so as to achieve the functions of dustproof, waterproof, oil-proof and impurity-proof.
✅ English name: V-ring seal
✅ Classification: Rotating shaft seal
? 2. Structure diagram and working principle
V-ring generally consists of three parts:
Mounting Body: installed on the shaft and rotates with the shaft;
Flexible Hinge: makes the sealing lip elastic;
Sealing Lip: contacts the stationary surface to form a seal.
? Working principle:
When the shaft rotates, the V-ring also rotates with the shaft;
The sealing lip gently fits on the stationary metal surface;
Centrifugal force + elastic fitting force jointly prevent contaminants from entering the bearing or sealing cavity.
Standards are in accordance with ISO 611 or manufacturer's own standards (such as Freudenberg, SKF)
