ZaGO’s New Crystal Tactile
O-Ring Seals
(
9/18/2011 )
The
problem is that traditional tactile switches do not survive
under severe environmental conditions. In response to
customer needs ZaGO developed a double sealed structure to
protect not only the switch but the cut-out in the panel as
well. An O-ring is inserted in a groove imbedded in the
switch seal, as the surface of the panel is brought together
with the seal, the o-ring cross section is squeezed. This
action results in deformation of the ring and forms a seal.
O-ring seals are easy to maintain: they are flexible and
they also absorb metal tolerance stack-up, so this becomes a
great solution.
ZaGO’s
Crystal Seals have a high modulus of elasticity, making them
flexible but at the same time enabling them to retain their
hardness, offering excellent abrasion and chemical
resistance. It also offers very good impact and flexibility
at low temperatures. ZaGO?s new Crystal O-ring Seal is
designed to fit most brands of push button tactile switches.
ZaGO
specializes in designing practical, economical,
environmentally responsbile sealing solutions that will
ensure the long lasting and dependable operation of
switches. ZaGO?s technical group is always available to work
alongside its customers? engineers to create a unique design
to fit their specifications and ensure the highest quality

Today,
major manufacturers of rocker, push button, toggle and
tactile switches, and circuit breakers are increasingly
choosing ZaGO?s waterproof sealing switch boots not just for
their high quality and cost competitiveness, but also

actuation. They are durable and dependable, and can be
