O-RING

$0.45

Description
  • Purpose: O-rings are used to create a tight and reliable seal between mating surfaces, preventing the leakage of fluids or gases in a wide range of applications.
  • Material Composition: O-rings are typically made from elastomeric materials such as rubber, silicone, or fluorocarbon. These materials offer flexibility, resilience, and chemical resistance, making them suitable for various operating conditions.
  • Versatility: O-rings have diverse applications across industries, including automotive, aerospace, hydraulic systems, plumbing, and manufacturing. They are used in engines, pumps, valves, cylinders, and other mechanical components.
  • Installation: O-rings are installed in grooves or recesses of mating surfaces, where they are compressed to form a seal. Proper installation and groove design are essential for effective sealing.
  • Maintenance: Regular inspection of O-rings is important to detect signs of wear, damage, or deterioration. Worn or damaged O-rings should be replaced promptly to maintain sealing integrity.
