What are the advantages and storage methods of o-rings?

The o-ring is a sealing component with an annular cross-sectional posture. The o-ring is widely used in a variety of industrial equipment, and has sealing properties in the necessary temperature, working pressure and different liquid or vapor substances. Compared with other sealing rings, O-rings have the following advantages:

1. The sealing position of the o-ring is simple in structure, compact in installation position, and relatively light in net weight.
2. The o-ring has the effect of self-sealing, and one hydraulic seal can surpass the actual effect of sealing.
3. The O-ring has good sealing properties, and there is basically no leakage when it is used as a fixed seal. When it is used as a fitness sports seal, there is only some leakage when the speed is high.
4. The o-ring fitness exercise has little friction, and it can also be integrated in places where work pressure is replaced and changed.
5.O-ring standard and pipe groove have been standardized, low cost, easy to obtain products, is conducive to use and outsourcing.

The storage method of the o-ring:
When the o-ring is installed in the pipe groove, be careful not to distort the o-ring. When installing the o-ring, consider coating the pipe groove and the o-ring with a sealing substance, and do not use it when it is not in use. Open the original packaging of the o-ring to prevent the o-ring from adhering to dust or entering dirt, which will cause damage to the o-ring, and should try to reduce the sun exposure or place it around a high temperature pyrogen such as a heating furnace to prevent the o-ring. The ring is brittle, and it should be avoided to bind it on the needle or metal wire to prevent the deformation of the o-ring and the damage of the lip end. It is necessary to note that the color of the o-ring will sometimes fade when it is stored, that is, the surface of the o-ring will form hoarfrost, which is not easy to have a negative impact on the effect of the o-ring.
