Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong size O-ring for the groove, leading to leaks or extrusion.Verify O-ring dimensions (ID, OD, Cross Section) match the groove specifications precisely.
Over-stretching or twisting the O-ring during installation, causing premature failure.Handle the O-ring with care and ensure it sits correctly in the groove without undue stress.

Common Applications

  • High-temperature sealing in ovens and kilns
  • Chemical processing equipment
