Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening the sealing assembly, which can deform the O-ring and compromise its sealing capability.Adhere to specified torque values for fasteners to prevent O-ring damage and premature failure.
Using the wrong type of lubricant or failing to lubricate at all, leading to friction damage during installation and operation.Always use a lubricant specifically recommended for Silicone O-rings and the operating environment.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Automotive and aerospace sealing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of O-ring material with the media and operating temperature to prevent degradation.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning agents on the O-ring or sealing surfaces.
