“O”-Rings When
choosing an “O”-ring there are several factors to
consider in determining proper selection including:
the application for which the “O”-ring is to be
used; the media to be sealed; the size of the
fastener to be sealed; and the temperature and
pressure to which the “O” ring will be subjected.
Once each of these factors has been considered and
an “O” ring has been chosen, engineering
calculations should either be checked manually or
using by “O”-ring selection software.
