Description
Nitrile Rubber End Cap | Plugs | EC72x7-VK | Outside Diameter (72mm) x Width (7mm)
Product Overview:
Nitrile Rubber End Cap are specifically engineered to seal housing openings where a rotating shaft does not pass through. These end plugs prevent contaminants such as dust, dirt, moisture, or debris from entering the bearing housing or mechanical assemblies. Designed for applications requiring a robust and flexible seal, these covers feature a durable steel body encased in nitrile rubber (NBR), combining mechanical strength with chemical resistance.
The product is ideally suited for shafts with a diameter of 72 mm and a plug width of 7 mm, ensuring a precise, snug fit that protects internal components from environmental exposure.
