Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during installation, which can pinch or damage the O-ring.Apply gentle, even pressure during assembly. If resistance is encountered, re-inspect the groove and O-ring for proper fit and alignment.
Installing the wrong size or material O-ring for the application.Verify the O-ring dimensions and material compatibility with the fluid and operating conditions before installation. Consult product specifications and chemical resistance charts.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing equipment
  • High-temperature hydraulic systems
  • Fuel and oil handling systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of the Viton material with all media in the application. Consult chemical resistance charts for specific fluids.
  • Avoid exposing the O-ring to temperatures exceeding its rated maximum or to environments with ozone or UV radiation, as this can degrade the material.
