SKF TS56

SKF TS 56 V-Ring Axial Shaft Seal Description The SKF TS 56 is an all-rubber V-ring seal designed for axial sealing on shafts. It functions by sealing against a counterface perpendicular to the shaft, providing reliable protection against dirt, dust, and moisture while effectively retaining lubricants. Its simple design allows for easy installation and tolerance of minor shaft misalignments.

FAQ What is the primary material of the SKF TS 56, and what are its temperature limits?The SKF TS 56 is typically made from Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (NBR). This material offers good resistance to oils and fuels and generally operates in temperatures from -40 deg C to +100 deg C. Can this V-ring be used for high-speed applications?Yes, V-rings are suitable for a range of speeds. For a 56mm shaft, the TS 56 can typically handle peripheral speeds up to 12 m/s without axial support. For higher speeds, axial support is recommended to prevent the seal from lifting off the counterface. What kind of surface finish is required for the counterface that this V-ring seals against?For optimal sealing performance and minimal wear, the counterface should have a fine-turned or ground surface with a roughness of Ra 1.6 to 3.2 micrometers. A smooth, corrosion-resistant surface ensures a long service life for the seal. profideals is not an authorized distributor, reseller or representative of the products featured on this website.
