V-rings (axial shaft seals, type VA and VS): shaft range, ring and mounting width, d2, profile height and width — dimension sheet Source: Xem Studio, https://xemstudio.com/objects/v-rings-va-vs-vl/ (sheet CC BY 4.0) Basis: Fridle's V-ring catalogue tables for VA (shaft 2.7 to 174 mm, 40 sizes) and the first six VS sizes, compared against Dichtomatik's V-ring catalogue for the first ten VA sizes; numbers only Catalog version: 2026-10-20 Sizes: see table below - Columns follow Fridle's headings: code, shaft diameter d, d2 max and d2 min (given as d plus an offset), b1 mounting width (installed width of the ring, with tolerance), d1 ring diameter, W profile height, B profile width and b2. The catalogue does not define the letters in words, and the figure is not in the text, so no further meaning is read into them. 40 VA rows are tabulated (VA0003 to VA0170, shaft 2.7 to 174 mm); Fridle's VA table ends at VA0170; Dichtomatik's list continues to VA50-2000 (the larger sizes were not read). - Cross-check with Dichtomatik (VA 50 NBR, metric; its part types VA50-3 to VA50-16): its columns use other letters (h1, H, d2, d1, H1), and for the first ten sizes the values are numerically the same as Fridle's: Dichtomatik h1 = Fridle b2, H = B, H1 = b1 (for example VA50-10: h1 3.4, H 5.5, H1 4.5 ± 0.6; Fridle VA0010: b2 3.4, B 5.5, b1 4.5 ± 0.6), and its d2 = shaft + 1 or + 2, d1 = shaft + 4, + 6 or + 9 equal Fridle's d2 max and d2 min. The shaft ranges differ at the top end of the bands: Dichtomatik prints 2.7 to 3.5, 3.5 to 4.5, 4.5 to 5.5, 5.5 to 6.5, 6.5 to 8, 8 to 9.5, 9.5 to 11.5, 11.5 to 12.5, 13.5 to 15.5, 15.5 to 17.5 against Fridle's narrower 2.7 to 3.4 ... 15.5 to 17.0 (last column); both are shown and the ring series is the same, so choose by the maker you buy from. - VS (the wider-profile type) is tabulated only for its first six sizes (VS006 to VS014); VL and the sizes above VA0170 are not given: the VL table could not be read cleanly (one ring-diameter value was a misprint in the source) and larger sizes were not read. Fridle's page also prints a surface-roughness line (Rmax 10 to 16 µm, Rz 6.3 to 10 µm, Ra 1.6 to 3.2 µm) without saying which surface it applies to, speed figures of 8, 8 and 12 m/s that cannot be matched to types, a shaft misalignment limit of 1° and NBR / FPM temperature ranges (-40 to +100 °C and -20 to +180 °C); these are not used further. - Rotary seal vs stackable V-ring: this page covers the axial shaft-mounted V-ring (a flinger). McMaster-Carr's V-ring page also lists PTFE and leather stackable V-ring packing seals (for valves, pumps and cylinders), which are a different product; they are not tabulated here. - No file: the ring's section (body, lip, hinge) is not published as numbers beyond W, B and b1, so a model would be invented. McMaster-Carr sells shaft-mounted V-rings with per-part STEP; its page is linked, not copied. code shaft d (mm) d2 max d2 min b1 (mounting width) d1 W B b2 Dichtomatik (same ring) VA0003 2.7 – 3.4 d+1 d+4 2.5±0.3 2.5 1.5 3.0 2.1 VA50-3: shaft 2.7 – 3.5 VA0004 3.5 – 4.4 d+1 d+6 3.0±0.4 3.2 2.0 3.7 2.4 VA50-4: shaft 3.5 – 4.5 VA0005 4.5 – 5.4 d+1 d+6 3.0±0.4 4.0 2.0 3.7 2.4 VA50-5: shaft 4.5 – 5.5 VA0006 5.5 – 6.4 d+1 d+6 3.0±0.4 5.0 2.0 3.7 2.4 VA50-6: shaft 5.5 – 6.5 VA0007 6.5 – 7.5 d+1 d+6 3.0±0.4 6.0 2.0 3.7 2.4 VA50-7: shaft 6.5 – 8 VA0008 8.0 – 9.0 d+1 d+6 3.0±0.4 7.0 2.0 3.7 2.4 VA50-8: shaft 8 – 9.5 VA0010 9.5 – 11.0 d+2 d+9 4.5±0.6 9.0 3.0 5.5 3.4 VA50-10: shaft 9.5 – 11.5 VA0012 11.5 – 12.0 d+2 d+9 4.5±0.6 10.5 3.0 5.5 3.4 VA50-12: shaft 11.5 – 12.5 VA0014 13.5 – 15.0 d+2 d+9 4.5±0.6 12.5 3.0 5.5 3.4 VA50-14: shaft 13.5 – 15.5 VA0016 15.5 – 17.0 d+2 d+9 4.5±0.6 14.0 3.0 5.5 3.4 VA50-16: shaft 15.5 – 17.5 VA0018 17.5 – 18.5 d+2 d+9 4.5±0.6 16.0 3.0 5.5 3.4 — VA0020 19.0 – 20.5 d+2 d+12 6.0±0.8 18.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0022 21.0 – 23.5 d+2 d+12 6.0±0.8 20.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0025 24.0 – 26.5 d+2 d+12 6.0±0.8 22.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0028 27.0 – 28.5 d+2 d+12 6.0±0.8 25.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0030 29.0 – 30.5 d+3 d+12 6.0±0.8 27.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0032 31.0 – 32.5 d+3 d+12 6.0±0.8 29.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0035 33.0 – 35.5 d+3 d+12 6.0±0.8 31.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0038 36.0 – 37.5 d+3 d+12 6.0±0.8 34.0 4.0 7.5 4.7 — VA0040 38.0 – 42.0 d+3 d+15 7.0±1.0 36.0 5.0 9.0 5.5 — VA0045 43.0 – 47.0 d+3 d+15 7.0±1.0 40.0 5.0 9.0 5.5 — VA0050 48.0 – 52.0 d+3 d+15 7.0±1.0 45.0 5.0 9.0 5.5 — VA0055 53.0 – 57.0 d+3 d+15 7.0±1.0 49.0 5.0 9.0 5.5 — VA0060 58.0 – 62.0 d+3 d+15 7.0±1.0 54.0 5.0 9.0 5.5 — VA0065 63.0 – 67.0 d+3 d+15 7.0±1.0 58.0 5.0 9.0 5.5 — VA0070 68.0 – 72.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 63.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0075 73.0 – 77.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 67.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0080 78.0 – 82.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 72.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0085 83.0 – 87.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 76.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0090 88.0 – 92.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 81.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0095 93.0 – 97.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 85.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0100 98.0 – 104.0 d+4 d+18 9.0±1.2 90.0 6.0 11.0 6.8 — VA0110 105.0 – 114.0 d+4 d+21 10.5±1.5 99.0 7.0 12.8 7.9 — VA0120 115.0 – 124.0 d+4 d+21 10.5±1.5 108.0 7.0 12.8 7.9 — VA0130 125.0 – 134.0 d+4 d+21 10.5±1.5 117.0 7.0 12.8 7.9 — VA0140 135.0 – 144.0 d+4 d+21 10.5±1.5 126.0 7.0 12.8 7.9 — VA0150 145.0 – 154.0 d+4 d+21 10.5±1.5 135.0 7.0 12.8 7.9 — VA0160 155.0 – 164.0 d+5 d+24 12.0±1.8 144.0 8.0 14.5 9.0 — VA0170 165.0 – 174.0 d+5 d+24 12.0±1.8 153.0 8.0 14.5 9.0 — VS006 5.5 – 6.4 d+1 d+6 4.5±0.4 5.0 2.0 5.2 3.9 — VS007 6.5 – 7.5 d+1 d+6 4.5±0.4 6.0 2.0 5.2 3.9 — VS008 8.0 – 9.0 d+1 d+6 4.5±0.4 7.0 2.0 5.2 3.9 — VS010 9.5 – 11.0 d+2 d+9 6.7±0.6 9.0 3.0 7.7 5.6 — VS012 11.5 – 13.0 d+2 d+9 6.7±0.6 10.5 3.0 7.7 5.6 — VS014 13.5 – 15.0 d+2 d+9 6.7±0.6 12.5 3.0 7.7 5.6 — Files elsewhere (not hosted by Xem Studio; license as stated by the publisher): - Fridle: V-rings catalogue: VA, VS, VL tables (code, shaft diameter d, d2 max / min, mounting width b1, ring diameter d1, profile height W, profile width B, b2) — web — Publisher's page; dimensions are facts — https://www.fridle.com/wp/media/2025/06/V-RINGS.pdf - Dichtomatik (V-ring catalogue, 'v-rings_en'): V-rings VA 50 / VS 50 / VL NBR and FKM, metric: part no., type, shaft range, h1, H, d2, d1, H1 — web — Publisher's page; dimensions are facts — https://elektrotanya.com/sites/default/files/forum/2015/04/v-rings_en.pdf - McMaster-Carr: V-ring seals (shaft-mounted rotary seals, PTFE and leather stackable V-ring packing) (free STEP/IGES per part, for your own design use; no redistribution) — STEP, IGES, PDF — McMaster-Carr site terms: personal design use, no redistribution [verify license at link] — https://www.mcmaster.com/products/v-ring-seals No true-size file yet: the published figures do not fix the whole shape; a measured scan is planned.
