Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening fasteners, causing excessive compression and premature failure of the O-ring.Adhere to specified torque values for all fasteners to prevent over-compression and ensure proper sealing.
Using incompatible lubricants or cleaning agents that degrade the Viton material.Consult the material compatibility chart and use only lubricants and cleaning agents specifically approved for Viton and the operating environment.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Petroleum and gas industry seals
  • Automotive fuel systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Verify material compatibility with the specific fluid or gas being sealed.
  • Avoid exposing the O-ring to temperatures exceeding its operational limits.
