- O-rings are one of the most common spares in sealing items. Its application involves squeezing between two surfaces to stop fluid or air from leaking.
- It is commonly used in hydraulic cylinders, valves, pumps and connectors. In hydraulic cylinders its purpose may be dynamic or static meaning, an upward-downward moving motion or fixed in one position.
- The material and hardness of the O-ring will vary based on the application, temperature and chemicals involved.
Common materials are Nitrile Butadiene Rubber, Viton® (FKM/FPM), Silicone® (VMQ), EPDM, Fluorosilicone® (FVMQ), Aflas® (FEPM), Kalrez® (FFKM) and HNBR.
HNBR & Viton® AED & LT AED grades are also available.
We have been specialists in the manufacturing of O-rings since 1965.
Washers & Gaskets
- Certain Valves require Washers to withstand high hydraulic or pneumatic pressure. Their purpose is to stop air or fluid from leaking.
- Camlock® Gaskets or Washers are used to connect two hoses or pipes to transfer air or fluid. In such an application, a high pressure resistant seal is required. Sometimes, it is used to transfer dry gas such as Sour Gas (H2S) which requires a special grade of elastomers (rubber).
Hydraulic and Pneumatic Seals
There are multiple types of hydraulic and pneumatic seals in various profiles and materials. NBR and Viton are mostly used for dynamic applications. V-Packs are used in cylinders, for pneumatic pistons NBR is a common choice. PU is also used for U-profile seals.
