Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during installation, leading to cuts or nicks in the O-ring.Apply a compatible lubricant and use appropriate installation tools to gently seat the O-ring.
Installing the O-ring in a twisted or stretched state, compromising the seal.Ensure the O-ring lies flat and without tension in the groove.
Using an incompatible lubricant that can degrade the Viton material.Consult the O-ring manufacturer's compatibility chart or product specifications for approved lubricants.
