  2. Crack growth equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crack_growth_equation

    The crack growth rate behaviour with respect to the alternating stress intensity can be explained in different regimes (see, figure 1) as follows Regime A: At low growth rates, variations in microstructure, mean stress (or load ratio), and environment have significant effects on the crack propagation rates. It is observed at low load ratios ...

  3. O-ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring

    Typical O-ring and application. An O-ring, also known as a packing or a toric joint, is a mechanical gasket in the shape of a torus; it is a loop of elastomer with a round cross-section, designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, forming a seal at the interface.

  4. Gasket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

    A flange gasket is a type of gasket made to fit between two sections of pipe that are flared to provide higher surface area. Flange gaskets come in a variety of sizes and are categorized by their inside diameter and their outside diameter.

  5. Cox model engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cox_model_engine

    The Killer Bee 051 existed so that modelers could fly the same plane in two competition classes (i.e. A and 1/2A) simply by changing the engine. This engine has exactly the same performance as the 049. There is a legend that two thin lines (or grooves) in the piston skirt are for positive identification but this is incorrect.

  6. EPDM rubber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPDM_rubber

    Idealized EPDM polymer, red = ethylene-derived; blue = propylene-derived; black = ethylidene norbornene-derived. EPDM rubber (ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber) [1] [2] [3] is a type of synthetic rubber that is used in many applications.

  7. Walker-Turner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker-Turner

    Walker-Turner was founded by Ernest T. Walker and William Brewer Turner sometime around 1927 and 1929. The company was first located in Jersey City, New Jersey until 1931 when they relocated to Plainfield, New Jersey. The first machines Walker-Turner made were small, inexpensive, light-weight machines designed for home workshops of the time.

  8. Sealant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealant

    They usually have a paste consistency to allow filling of gaps between substrates. Low shrinkage after application is often required. Sealants also typically require a sufficient compression set, especially when the sealant is a foam gasket. Many adhesive technologies can be formulated into sealants. [citation needed]

  9. Chevrolet Turbo-Air 6 engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_Turbo-Air_6_engine

    Among the goals for the new engine were increased horsepower, and elimination of some of the problems encountered with the original design, such as head-gasket failures and oil leaks. [31] Winchell first built an engine with displacement increased to 176 cu in (2.9 L), but this only made the existing head-gasket problems worse.
