What is a Nilos seal?

A Nilos seal is a type of gasket designed specifically to ensure effective sealing in ball and roller bearings. These seals are used to prevent the ingress of dust, dirt, debris and moisture into bearings, thereby prolonging their life and maintaining optimum performance. Nilos seals are particularly appreciated in industrial environments, where conditions are often difficult and demanding.

Different Nilos seal profiles

Nilos seals are available in several profiles to meet specific needs:

  • Nilos type AV seals: designed for single-row ball or roller bearings, they provide a seal on the outer ring side of the bearing.

  • Nilos JV type seals: Designed for single-row ball or roller bearings, they provide a seal on the inner ring side of the bearing.

  • Nilos AK type seals: Used for double-row ball or roller bearings, they provide a complete seal on both sides of the bearing.

Special features of Nilos seals

Nilos seals offer several key advantages that make them indispensable in a variety of industrial applications:

  • superior sealing: These seals are designed to effectively prevent the ingress of contaminants into bearings, protecting rolling elements and bearing surfaces.

  • Durability: Made from robust materials such as stainless steel, they withstand wear and harsh environmental conditions.

  • Ease of installation: Nilos seals are easy to install on existing bearings without the need for complex modifications or special tools.

  • Compatibility: Available for a wide range of bearing sizes and types, they adapt easily to different bearing configurations.

How to choose the right part number?

To select the right Nilos seal for your needs, there are several criteria to consider:

  1. Bearing type: Identify the type of bearing to be fitted (ball bearings, roller bearings, etc.) and choose the corresponding Nilos seal (type AV, JV, AK) to ensure optimum sealing.

  2. Dimensions : Ensure that the dimensions of the Nilos seal (inner diameter, outer diameter, width) perfectly match those of the bearing to guarantee correct installation and optimum performance.

  3. Operating environment : Take into account environmental conditions (presence of dust, dirt, humidity, etc.) to choose a Nilos seal made from suitable materials, such as stainless steel for increased corrosion resistance.

  4. Compatibility with loads and speeds: Check that the Nilos seal can withstand the bearing's loads and rotational speeds to avoid premature degradation.

Benefits of Nilos seals for various industries

  • Manufacturing: Used in machine tools and production equipment to protect bearings from contaminants, reducing wear and extending machine life.

  • Automotive: Essential for wheel, transmission and engine bearings, where reliable sealing is crucial to prevent the ingress of dirt and debris.

  • Agriculture: Used in agricultural equipment to protect bearings from dusty and muddy environments, improving machine durability and reliability.

  • Construction: Used in construction equipment to protect bearings from harsh conditions and extend their service life despite dusty environments and heavy loads.
