Taconite Seal Kit

• 40.00 mm Shaft Size
• Suit SNT Housing Series

Taconite seals are a combination of both a labyrinth seal and V-ring seal . The labyrinth seal is made up of two separate metal ring components, inner and outer, that have interconnecting grooves that form a labyrinth gap . The outer metal ring component contains an O-ring on its outside diameter that provides an interference fit to the groove in the housing . The inside diameter of the inner metal ring component contains an O-ring that creates an interference fit with the shaft so that the ring will rotate with the shaft . This seal performs well in highly contaminated environments such as those seen in mining operations.
