Axial clamp seals

SKF axial clamp seals are designed for large and very large shaft diameters. They are suitable for use as primary seals or as secondary seals in applications where the primary seals are subjected to excessive solid or fluid contaminants. Axial clamp seals do not rotate but seal axially against a rotating counterface.

SKF axial clamp seals are made of profiled strips of non-reinforced nitrile rubber and are held firmly in position by stainless steel band clamps. They are available for shaft diameters ranging from 150 to 4 600 mm (5.9 to 181 in.).

The standard range of SKF axial clamp seals is intended for inch-size shaft diameters. Because axial clamp seals are typically installed with an approximate 25 mm (0.984 in.) gap between the ends, they may also be used for metric shaft diameters.
