An O-Ring represents a fundamental component in the panorama of mechanical engineering and watertight estate. It is an elastomeric ring, commonly known as rubber, characterized by a circular section, whose main purpose is to act as a garnish or seal. The versatility of the O-Rings lies in their ability to adapt to a wide range of industrial applications, guaranteeing the watertight estate between two surfaces or components.
In the assembly process, the O-Rings are positioned in the appropriately designed and compressed housing between two or more parts. This compression allows O-Ring to adapt to the surrounding surfaces, creating an airtight seal that prevents the escape of liquids or gas. In other words, O-Ring act as protective barriers that guarantee the integrity and reliability of the mechanical systems in which they are used.
Elite Gomro Srl stands out for the production of a wide range of o-rings, characterized by various sizes that are defined as a rope and diameter. This size range allows you to satisfy a multitude of application needs, ensuring maximum compatibility and versatility.
To ensure optimal performance in different operational contexts, several recommended rubber mixes are available for O-Ring. Among these, the NBR (nitrilic rubber), the EPDM (Etilene-Pilene), the VMQ (siliconic rubber) and the FKM (fluorocarbon rubber) are included, also known as Viton®. These mixes offer a unique combination of ownership, including chemical resistance, resistance to extreme temperatures and durability.
