Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overstretching or twisting the O-ring during installation.Install the O-ring without excessive force, ensuring it conforms to the groove's shape without deformation.
Using incompatible lubricants or failing to lubricate.Always use a lubricant specifically recommended for Viton and the operating fluid to prevent damage and aid installation.
Installing into a dirty or damaged groove.Thoroughly inspect and clean the groove before installation to prevent leaks and premature O-ring failure.

Common Applications

  • Chemical Processing Equipment
  • High-Temperature Fluid Handling Systems
  • Hydraulic and Pneumatic Actuators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Verify chemical compatibility with the specific media and operating temperatures before installation.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or tools that could scratch or damage the O-ring or groove.
