SKF® Speedi-Sleeve® bushings
Efficient and durable sealing

The SKF® Speedi-Sleeve® bushings are precision parts designed to recover shafts damaged by wear or scratching in the contact area of the lip seal lip.

What are V-rings?

They act as a new bearing surface, avoiding the need to machine or replace the original shaft.

Manufactured in 300 series stainless steel, These bushings are equipped with a resistant chrome-plated surface and a roughness finish between 10 and 20 RMS, optimized to guarantee an effective and durable seal.

Eliminate the need to grind or replace shafts.
They provide a high quality sealing surface.
They are easily installed without the need for special tools.
Compatible with standard seals, without the need to modify the housing.
Reduce maintenance costs and downtime.
