O-rings are one of the most widely utilized sealing products because they're inexpensive reliable and have simple mounting requirements. O-rings can be used in a variety of static (non-moving) and dynamic (moving) applications.
O-rings are frequently supplemented with a lubricant to assist in installation and sealing asperities. A mechanical seal is a device that helps join systems or mechanisms together by preventing leakage (e.g. in a pump system) containing pressure or excluding contamination.
The effectiveness of a seal is dependent on adhesion in the case of sealants and compression in the case of gaskets or o-rings. Specifications. Height: 0.8 in..
