Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during installation, leading to O-Ring extrusion or tearing.Apply a thin layer of compatible lubricant and gently guide the O-Ring into its groove, ensuring it sits flush without being forced.
Installing on contaminated or damaged mating surfaces, compromising the seal integrity.Thoroughly clean and inspect all mating surfaces for any imperfections before proceeding with O-Ring installation.

Common Applications

  • Chemical Processing Equipment
  • Automotive Fuel Systems
