Vee Packings are made up of multiple chevron packing seals that include a top adapter (male) and bottom adapter (female). The number of Vee Rings depends on the pressure (see table below). Vee Packings are often used with rods and pistons in both high and low pressure applications.
Standard U Cup seals are made of 80 durometer Nitrile and come with internal lubrication. 70 and 90 durometer are also available, as well as a variety of other compounds.
