Description
SKF 40 VA V belongs to v-ring seal, part of our Seals range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for 40 VA V and any equivalents.
A V-ring seal from the SKF VA V series is an axial sealing component that fits onto the shaft and turns with it. Its elastomer lip presses against a perpendicular face, often a bearing front or flange, and keeps out dust, water and particles. This makes it a practical dynamic barrier for pumps, gearboxes and electric motors. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this series through its industrial seals range.
The code combines a millimeter figure for the shaft diameter with the VA V suffix. For instance, 16 VA V fits a 16 mm shaft and 40 VA V fits a 40 mm shaft. The suffix points to the lip shape and material, but you should confirm specific properties in the product data sheet. This format lets you match the seal to the shaft size quickly.
These seals appear in centrifugal pumps, gear reducers, electric motors, compressors, fans and transmission equipment. The V-lip handles dusty or splash-prone conditions, so they are found in food processing, cement, mining and water treatment plants. Agricultural machinery also uses them to protect bearings from dust and moisture.
When selecting a V-ring, check the shaft diameter and the permissible peripheral speed. Installation goes directly on the shaft with no housing machining, and the lip must sit against a perpendicular, ground surface. A light coat of compatible grease or oil on the lip helps lower wear. Keep the shaft and contact face aligned to prevent early leaks.
SKF V-ring seals can be replaced with equivalent products from other recognized brands if critical dimensions and elastomer material match. For a quote, include the full seal code and operating conditions such as temperature and speed. MR Industrial Accessories can help you choose the right option for your equipment.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I choose the right SKF VA V series V-ring seal?
- Measure the shaft diameter where the seal mounts and check the rotation speed. The numeric code gives that diameter in millimeters. If unsure, send the measurements and equipment type via WhatsApp and we will advise you.
- Are SKF VA V series V-ring seals compatible with other brands?
- Yes, they can be interchanged with seals of similar characteristics from other brands when dimensions and material match. For a safe equivalent, provide the complete code and working conditions when requesting a quote.
- Where are SKF VA V series V-ring seals installed?
- They mount on the shaft and rotate with it, while the lip contacts a fixed perpendicular face such as a bearing raceway or flange. They protect against dust, water and particles in pumps, motors, gearboxes and other rotating equipment.
