SKF V-ring seals in the VE R series are rotary sealing elements that fit on the shaft and seal against a perpendicular face. The flexible elastomer lip works as both a deflector and a seal, keeping dust, water and particles away from bearings and housings. They suit equipment with a rotating shaft where an effective barrier is needed without machining the housing. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SKF line and helps customers select the correct size.
The code for these seals pairs a number with the letters VE R. The number gives the shaft diameter the seal mounts on: 310 VE R fits a 310 mm shaft, 360 VE R a 360 mm shaft and 430 VE R a 430 mm shaft. VE identifies the V-ring category and R the profile variant. For a replacement, the numeric code is the key figure that determines the fit on the shaft.
You will find them in pumps, gearboxes, electric motors, conveyors and process equipment. They also handle high dust or water exposure in food plants, cement plants, mining and effluent treatment. By blocking contaminants from reaching the bearing or housing, they help extend the life of the assembly and cut unscheduled maintenance stops.
When selecting a seal, check the shaft diameter and the rotation speed of the equipment. The lip should sit with slight interference on the sealing face; if the mounting is misaligned, the seal will not do its job. Coating the lip with a compatible grease helps reduce wear. In very dirty environments, consider pairing it with a radial shaft seal or a labyrinth for an extra barrier.
SKF V-ring seals can be interchanged with equivalent products from other brands when the shaft diameter and profile match. Nomenclature varies between manufacturers, so cross-referencing should be based on dimensions, not on the code. If you are unsure, send the shaft dimensions and a photo of the mounting and we will guide you to the equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I determine the correct V-ring size?
- The number in the code indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters. Measure the shaft where the seal seats and pick the reference that matches. If the shaft is worn, check with us before deciding on the size.
- Can I replace a V-ring from another brand with an SKF one?
- Yes, provided the shaft diameter and profile match. Interchangeability is defined by dimensions, not by code. Send us the original reference or dimensions and we will help you find the equivalent.
- What lubrication does the V-ring lip require?
- A layer of grease compatible with the elastomer is recommended before mounting. That reduces initial friction and wear. In service, the seal works dry or with the equipment's own lubrication.
