How Do O-Rings Work?
A torus-shaped mechanical gasket, also known as a packing or a toric junction, is a round-cross-sectioned elastomer loop intended to be seated in a groove and squeezed during assembly between two or more pieces, producing a seal at the interface. Establish the Operating Conditions: Determine the temperature, pressure, and chemical exposure that the O-ring will experience during operation. Include the highest and lowest temperatures, as well as the maximum and minimum.

An O-ring, also known as a packing or a toric junction, is a torus-shaped mechanical gasket; it is a round-cross-sectioned elastomer loop meant to be seated in a groove and squeezed during assembly between two or more pieces, producing a seal at the interface. Determine the Operational Conditions: Identify the temperature range, pressure, and chemical exposure that the O-ring will be subjected to during operation. Make sure to account for the highest and lowest temperatures, as well as the maximum and minimum.
