FAQ
Q: How are O-rings sized?
-O-rings are typically sized based on their inside diameter (ID) and cross-sectional diameter (CS). For example, an O-ring with an ID of 10 mm and a CS of 2 mm would be specified as 10x2 mm.
Q: Can O-rings be used in dynamic applications?
-Yes, O-rings can be used in dynamic applications where there is relative motion between parts. However, the design must account for factors such as friction and wear to ensure longevity.
Q: Are O-rings reusable?
-O-rings are generally not reusable once they have been compressed and used for sealing. After compression, the O-ring may lose some of its original properties, affecting its sealing performance. It is recommended to replace O-rings with new ones when reassembling the components.
