WAS

Rotary shaft seal in standard design ­according to DIN 3760 with an elastomer outer sheath covering a metal insert as well as a spring-energised ­sealing lip. In addition, the standard design is available with a protective lip (WAS) on the air side.

Description
Product group: Rotary shaft seal
Design: A = outer surface rubber-coated
Model: S = protective lip
Seal material: NBR 70
Colour: black
Stiffening ring: non-alloy steel according to DIN EN 10139

Areas of application
Sealing of rotating machine elements such as shafts, hubs and axles.

Function
The WAS is a single-action rotary shaft seal for rotating or pivoting shafts with optional protective lip sealing action (WAS) on the side facing away from the medium, against dirt accumulation from the outside. The elastomer outer sheath provides good static sealing, good thermal expansion balance e.g. in light-metal housings, better sealing with greater roughness and secure sealing for split housings as well as good static sealing with thin fluid or gaseous media. 

Media
Good chemical resistance to many mineral oils and greases.

Operational application limits
Pressure (Mpa/bar): ≤ 0.05/0.5
Temperature (°C): -40 to +100
Peripheral speed (m/s): ≤ 12
