products - O'rings
INTRODUCTION
O'rings are used as static and dynamic seals for a wide range of fluids.
Applications for o'rings seals are many and varied with a wide range
of elastomers being used to cover the different end use service conditions.
O'rings are a low cost seal with a critical function. Failure of an o'rings
can result in substantial repair, service and down time costs.
O'rings are available in many standard sizes ex stock
