V-Rings

V-rings are versatile seals that can be used to retain grease lubricants, but with proper surface preparation, they can also run dry with minimal torque loss and a long service life. Due to their high elasticity, smaller V-rings can stretch up to 2.5 times their original diameter, allowing them to be easily installed on shafts without requiring disassembly of the unit, even over flanges, pillow blocks, or other components. A single V-ring size can fit multiple shaft diameters, both in English and metric units, and can accommodate various media across a broad temperature range from -40°F to 392°F, depending on the material selected.
