The SKF HMS V radial shaft seal is an elastomeric lip seal that fits into a housing and runs against a rotating shaft. It keeps lubricant in and blocks dust, water, and particles from getting into the assembly. Because it forms a dynamic barrier, it is a common component in pumps, electric motors, gearboxes, and other industrial equipment where good sealing protects bearings and gears.
The HMS V series code follows a simple pattern. Take 7X16X7 HMS5 V1: the first three figures are millimeter dimensions—bore 7 mm, outside diameter 16 mm, width 7 mm. The HMS5 suffix tells you the lip type and material, and V1 is a variant within the series. Reading the code this way lets you order the exact seal without guessing.
These seals appear in many industries across Latin America and the United States, including food, chemical, petrochemical, cement, and steel. You will find them in centrifugal pumps, electric motors, gearboxes, mixers, and conveyors. They handle moderate speeds and low pressures, which makes them a practical choice for rotating equipment that needs dependable sealing.
Selection depends on shaft diameter, rotation speed, working temperature, and the lubricant in use. During installation, use the right tools so the lip does not get damaged. Lubricate the lip before fitting, and check that the shaft and housing are aligned. A seal that is installed poorly can leak and lead to early bearing or gear failure.
For equivalences, SKF HMS V seals can be replaced by other brands as long as the dimensions and specifications match. Confirm that the lip material and spring suit the fluid and the operating temperature.

Frequently asked questions
- What does HMS V mean in an SKF seal code?
- HMS V is the SKF radial shaft seal series. The HMS5 suffix identifies the lip type and material, while V1 is a specific variant. The numbers before the suffix are the bore, outside diameter, and width in millimeters.
- How do I select the correct radial shaft seal?
- Start with the shaft diameter, rotation speed, temperature, and lubricant. Then choose a seal that matches those dimensions and has a compatible material. If you are unsure, send us the measurements and we will help.
- Can SKF HMS V seals be interchanged with other brands?
- Yes, when the dimensions and the material and spring specifications align. Check chemical and thermal compatibility. Send us the code and we will confirm the equivalence.
