Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening fasteners during assembly, leading to O-ring extrusion or damage.Adhere to specified torque values during fastener tightening to prevent excessive compression and potential O-ring failure.
Using incompatible lubricants or cleaning agents that can degrade the Viton elastomer.Consult chemical compatibility charts to select only Viton-compatible lubricants and cleaning solutions.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
  • Automotive fuel systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for use with steam, hot water, or certain aggressive solvents like ketones and esters.
