NILOS

The NILOS Ring, also known as an Endless Ring, is a sealing system used in roller bearings. It's essentially a continuous elastomer ring that fits tightly around the outer circumference of a bearing's inner ring, sealing the bearing against contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture while retaining lubrication.

The design of the NILOS Ring varies depending on the specific application and the type of bearing it's intended for. Generally, it consists of a metal core with an elastomeric covering. This covering provides the flexibility needed for the ring to fit snugly around the bearing, ensuring a tight seal.

NILOS Rings are commonly used in industries where bearings are exposed to harsh environments or where contamination must be prevented to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the bearing. They're particularly popular in heavy industries like mining, steel production, and cement manufacturing.

Overall, NILOS Rings play a crucial role in extending the service life of bearings by protecting them from contaminants and helping to retain lubrication, thereby reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
