For maintenance teams dealing with dust, splash or process debris, the SKF VA R series V-ring is a straightforward axial seal. It fits directly on the shaft and its elastomer lip presses against a perpendicular face, so it deflects contaminants and helps hold lubricant in place. MR supplies this series in shaft sizes from 14 mm to 35 mm.

Reading the code is simple. The number at the front is the nominal shaft diameter in millimeters, and the VA R suffix indicates the lip shape and material. So 14 VA R fits a 14 mm shaft, 20 VA R a 20 mm shaft, and 35 VA R a 35 mm shaft. That makes size selection a matter of knowing the shaft dimension where the seal will sit.

You will find these seals on electric motors, gearboxes, pumps, fans, conveyors and farm equipment. They are common in food processing, cement, tanneries and repair shops because they tolerate dusty or splash-prone areas. In some assemblies they serve as a secondary barrier behind a primary radial shaft seal.

Selection depends on shaft diameter and rotation speed. The lip should touch the machined face with light pressure; pressing it too hard speeds up wear. Before installation, lubricate the lip with a compatible grease, and make sure the sealing face is clean, flat and free of burrs. Shaft-to-face alignment matters for even sealing.

SKF VA R V-rings can be interchanged with other brands that use the same dimensional designation, but always verify the inner diameter and lip profile first. MR carries this brand within its seals and oil seals line and can help you confirm the right option for your equipment.
