V-rings are included to seals of rotary shafts and in contrast to the simmerings, they seal in the axial direction on the front face of the bearing seat (fixed element) and rotate with the shaft. These rings have very simple construction and principle of operation. They are used for operation "solo", and cooperating with thr other type of seals operating in rotation. Demonstrate the ability to work on a "dry" and therefore can operate in dusty conditions. Among the advantages of these seals is the ability to apply them with greater eccentricity of the shaft and housing and the elimination of precise machining of the shaft.

V-ring consists of three elements:

  • sealing body which is clamped on the shaft
  • the sealing lip of the conical profile, providing a seal in relation to the mating surface
  • joint

Application:

Front flexible ring having a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the shaft is mounted on it with an appropriate clamp and rotates together with the shaft. The flexible sealing lip is adjacent to the sealable surface, achieved by the axial clamp seal assembly.

As shown in the figure below the sealing lip prevents the penetration of liquid from the outside and impurities.
