SKF V-ring seals of the VS R series are axial elastomer seals with a V-shaped lip that mount on the shaft and seal against a perpendicular face. Their main function is to protect bearings and housings from external contaminants such as dust, water and splashes, without generating significant friction. They are ideal for applications requiring an additional, economical and easy-to-install barrier.

The designation of the VS R series is read with the nominal shaft diameter followed by the letters VS R. For example, 12 VS R corresponds to a seal for a 12 mm shaft, 20 VS R for 20 mm and 30 VS R for 30 mm. The VS R suffix identifies the lip geometry and the standard material. It does not include width dimensions or tolerances in the designation; that data is found in specific tables.

In Argentine industry, SKF V-rings are used in pumps, electric motors, gear reducers, conveyors and agricultural equipment. Their ability to work in dusty environments or with water projections makes them common in food plants, cement plants and industrial wash bays. They are also used as secondary seals in bearing housings to extend lubricant life.

To select a V-ring, verify the shaft diameter and the permissible peripheral speed. The lip must run against a machined face perpendicular to the shaft, with adequate surface roughness. Lubricating the lip with grease or oil reduces wear. Ensure alignment between the shaft and the sealing face to prevent leaks. Installation is done by hand pressure or with a suitable tool, without damaging the elastomer.

SKF V-rings are interchangeable with seals from other brands that follow the same dimensional standard. When replacing, compare the shaft diameter, lip profile and material. In general, a V-ring of the same size from another brand may work, but verify chemical and thermal compatibility. MR Accesorios Industriales carries SKF as a brand.
