Laminar Sealing Rings as grease seals and dirt excluders for rotating shafts and housings have been used in Europe for more than 30 years.They form a highly efficient labyrinth seal that is virtually non-contacting, and therefore produce hardly any friction, heat or wear; their nearly unlimited temperature and speed-range, high reliability, minimum space requirements and insensitivity towards end-play and eccentricities allow the use of Laminar Sealing Rings for a wide variety of applications.This paper covers the use of Laminar Sealing Rings as grease seals and dirtexcluders/protectors of elastomeric shaft seals for rotating shafts and housings and intends to give the designer an introduction to this sealing element.
