VELNOX continues to develop specialized solutions for agricultural machinery and presents a wide range of seals for bearings used in seeder coulters.
During operation, coulters are constantly in contact with soil, dust, moisture, and aggressive environments. Many designs use standard radial ball bearings that require maximum protection against contamination and grease leakage. That is why VELNOX engineers have developed several types of seals for different operating conditions.
VELNOX offers three main seal types
- Standard contact seal — a classic solution for basic operating conditions that provides effective dust protection and grease retention.
- Wide contact area seal — a reinforced solution for harsh field conditions with increased contamination levels. The large contact area significantly improves protection against dust and moisture ingress.
- Double-lip labyrinth seal — a specialized seal for the most demanding operating conditions. The labyrinth design significantly impedes contaminant penetration into the bearing and ensures stable unit operation even with intense soil contact.
All VELNOX seal types provide
- effective bearing protection against dust, dirt, and moisture;
- reduced risk of grease leakage;
- extended bearing unit service life;
- stable operation at various rotation speeds;
- reduced equipment downtime during the season.
The right seal choice means more than just bearing longevity. It ensures stable coulter operation, uniform seeding depth, and precise seed placement in the soil. As a result, the farmer achieves more uniform germination, reduces seed material losses, and improves field equipment efficiency.
