As described above, the sealing with O-Ring is the simplest and the most economic solution for not heavy working conditions.
But when there are high pressures the O-Ring alone is not enough. In this specific case we must mount
O-ring with one or two anti-extrusion rings, for the simple or double effect.
In the range of anti-extrusion rings there’re different materials: PTFE, NBR and TPE
(thermoplastic elastomer).
The different proposed materials are:
*TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) for type RAE
*NBR 90 Shore A for type AKN
*PTFE for types AKC-AKS-AKW
The assembling is done in closed groove fitting the Anti-extrusion-ring before and the O-Ring after.
