O-Ring Definition
 
 
 
 
O-rings : An elastrometic seal of hemongenous composition molded in one piece to the configuration of tortuous with a circular cross section.
 
 
 
 
The O-ring is used as a dynamic or static seal, usually installed in a machined groove.
 
   
 
Type of Seals
 
   
 
Static Seal
:
A seal form between mating parts that do not move relative to each other.
 
 
*Axial Squeeze
:
Side to side compression
 
 
*Radial Squeeze
:
I.D/O.D compression
 
 
Dynamic Seal
:
A seal in each one or more of the mating components that move relative to each other.
 
 
*Reciprocating
:
axial movement
 
 
*Rotatory
:
curvalinear movement

O-Ring Design
 
     
 
The best O-Rings in the world wont work if the gland they are in isn't designed right.
 
   
probably 20-50% of all leakage problems are a problem with gland design
 
   
- The remainder are caused by poor seal material selection,seal damage and / or reaching the end of seal's service life (if they wear out) .
