Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong lubricant, which can degrade the Buna-N material.Always use lubricants recommended for Buna-N, such as silicone grease or mineral oil-based lubricants.
Forcing the O-ring into the groove, leading to cuts or tears.Gently guide the O-ring into the groove, using a plastic or wooden tool if necessary, to avoid damaging its surface.
Installing a twisted or pinched O-ring, compromising the seal.Ensure the O-ring lies flat and is not compressed unevenly within the groove before assembly completion.

Common Applications
