Application range of rubber O-rings

Rubber O-rings are suitable for installation on various mechanical equipment, providing a sealing function under specified temperatures, pressures, and different liquid and gas media, whether stationary or in motion. They are widely used in sanitary ware, shipbuilding, automotive, hardware, electronics, toys, electrical appliances, aerospace equipment, machinery, and various instruments.

 

Rubber O-rings are primarily used for static and reciprocating motion sealing. When used for rotary motion sealing, they are limited to low-speed rotary sealing devices. Rubber O-rings are generally installed in rectangular grooves on the outer or inner circumference for sealing. Rubber O-rings maintain good sealing and vibration damping performance even in environments resistant to oil, acids, alkalis, abrasion, and chemical corrosion. Therefore, rubber O-rings are one of the most widely used sealing components in hydraulic and pneumatic transmission systems.
