For added protection in extremely contaminated applications, in addition to our standard V-ring; SKF also offers the type MVR. The MVR seal also seals axially and functions by combining positive lip contact with centrifugal slinging action. However, the MVR seal is different in that the rubber element is stretch fitted into a metal shell. The metal shell is then press-fitted onto the shaft. This shell provides excellent protection from heavy debris and it automatically accommodates high rotating speeds without auxiliary clamping devices.
