Shaft seals
Shaft seals provide an effective seal against dirt and lubricant loss. They provide reliable protection for shafts and bearings, significantly increasing their service life.
Reliable Shaft Seals for Industrial Applications by MOVET
In mechanical and plant engineering, reliable sealing solutions are essential – especially where rotating shafts must be protected from lubricant leakage and contamination. The high-quality shaft seals from MOVET are specifically designed for use with bearing housings, meeting the highest demands for tightness, material resistance, and long-term durability.
Our components are built to deliver technical precision, material versatility, and full functionality – perfectly aligned with the demands of modern sealing technology in mechanical engineering.
What is a Shaft Seal and How Does It Work?
A shaft seal – also known as a radial shaft seal or, colloquially, “Simmerring®” – is a key sealing element for rotating shafts. It is mounted in a housing to provide a radial seal around the shaft. The purpose: retain lubricants within the system while effectively preventing the ingress of dirt, dust, and moisture.
MOVET shaft seals ensure optimum shaft sealing through a spring-loaded sealing lip that maintains constant contact with the rotating shaft – even under demanding industrial conditions.
Application: Shaft Seals for Bearing Housings
MOVET shaft seals are precisely engineered for integration with our bearing housings. They serve as seals for bearings across a wide range of applications – from general mechanical engineering and conveyor systems to packaging machinery and heavy-duty equipment.
Thanks to their dimensional accuracy, they are easy to install in both new systems and retrofit projects, forming a reliable unit together with the bearing, housing, and accessories.
Material Options for Industrial Requirements
Our radial shaft seals are available in multiple material configurations to suit different industrial environments:
- NBR shaft seals – the standard solution with good oil and grease resistance
- TPU shaft seals
- Shaft seals with double lip – additional dust barrier for dirty or abrasive surroundings
With MOVET, you benefit from maximum flexibility in selecting the right sealing solution for your shaft.
Why Radial Shaft Seals Are Critical for Moving Components
Sealing rotating shafts is not a minor detail – it's vital for operational safety, equipment lifespan, and maintenance intervals.
A worn or incompatible seal can lead to lubricant leakage, contamination ingress, and ultimately, failure of bearings or gear units. MOVET shaft seals are engineered with precision sealing lips and robust geometries, ensuring effective and durable rotary sealing performance in demanding environments.
