  • F.A.Q: V-Rings

    The V-Ring Seal is an all-rubber seal that seats directly on the shaft and seals axially against a counterface, housing, seal case or similar surface.


    1. What is the high speed capability of a V-Ring? - Top

    When the V-Ring is fitted on the shaft, the body of the V-Ring is subject to a centrifugal force that could possibly move or even lift off from the shaft at extremely high speeds. At shaft speeds over 10 – 12 m/s (meters per second) 1969 – 2362 ft/min (feet per minute) depending on the V-Ring material and construction, the V-Ring will generally require radial retention. - Updated: January 20, 2003
