Description
Nitrile Rubber End Cap | Shaft Diameter (40mm)x Width (5mm)
Nitrile Rubber End Cap (EC40x5), is a static sealing component designed to close off housing bores where a 40mm shaft does not pass through. Made from a steel core coated with Nitrile Rubber (NBR), this end cap provides excellent sealing and mechanical strength while protecting internal components such as bearings from oil, dust, and environmental contaminants. Ideal for a wide range of industrial, mechanical, and hydraulic applications.
