Products > O-Rings

O-rings can be used in static or dynamic applications. The sealing effect is achieved by compressing the torus shaped ring creating interference between the sealing surfaces and the rubber ring.

Standard Molded O-Rings

• Low cost and simple solution used in many applications
• Many standard sizes available from stock in Metric, Inch and Japanese standards
• Available in many materials, hardnesses and colors
• Most common material is NBR, FKM, EPDM and Silicone. FDA compliant and other materials are available on request

O-Ring Cord

• Continuous extruded length of an o-ring cross section
• Many customers buy cord to splice o-rings into their application when installing an endless o-ring is not possible
• Lengths can be supplied based on customer request

Vulcanized and Spliced

• Rings can be custom sized for your application using these methods
• These methods are used for o-rings that are too large to mold as one piece
• Vulcanizing connects the ends of o-ring cord using heat and specialized bonding agent
• Splicing connects the ends of o-ring cord using standard bonding agent
• Spliced o-rings should only be used in static sealing applications
  

Molded Profile Rings

• Rings have a round cross section and are custom engineered to your application’s specific requirements
• A good solution for customers who are unsatisfied with o-ring performance in a profiled groove
• Can generate cost savings at the assembly stage by reducing assembly time
