  2. Groove (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groove_(engineering)

    This canal may receive a circlip, an o-ring, or a gasket. A depression on the entire circumference of a cast or machined wheel, a pulley or sheave. This depression may receive a cable, a rope or a belt. A longitudinal channel formed in a hot rolled rail profile such as a grooved rail. This groove is for the flange on a train wheel.

  3. Scuba cylinder valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuba_cylinder_valve

    In the DIN screw thread connectors, the regulator screws into the cylinder valve, trapping the O-ring securely between the sealing face of the valve and the O-ring groove in the regulator. These are more reliable than A-clamps because the O-ring is well protected and the assembly is considerably more rigid, and has a lower profile, making O ...

  4. 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.

  5. Waveguide flange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveguide_flange

    The recessed region is bounded by a deep choke trench (or ditch or groove) cut into the face of the flange. Choke flanges are only used with rectangular waveguide, and are invariably pressurizable, having a gasket groove encircling [3] the choke ditch. The presence of these two concentric circular grooves makes choke flanges easily recognizable.

  6. End-face mechanical seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-face_mechanical_seal

    Both the seal ring and mating must accommodate secondary sealing elements. In some designs, various retainers, sleeves and other components may also include secondary sealing elements. Whereas a simple O-ring might require only a groove for fitting, some secondary sealing elements (for example, packing) might require mechanical compression.

  7. Obturating ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obturating_ring

    An obturating ring is a ring of relatively soft material designed to obturate under pressure to form a seal. Obturating rings are often found in artillery and other ballistics applications, and similar devices are also used in other applications such as plumbing , like the olive in a compression fitting .

  8. Vacuum flange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_flange

    A vacuum flange is a flange at the end of a tube used to connect vacuum chambers, tubing and vacuum pumps to each other. Vacuum flanges are used for scientific and industrial applications to allow various pieces of equipment to interact via physical connections and for vacuum maintenance, monitoring, and manipulation from outside a vacuum's chamber.

  9. Piping and instrumentation diagram - Wikipedia

    Piping and instrumentation diagram of pump with storage tank. Symbols according to EN ISO 10628 and EN 62424. A more complex example of a P&ID. A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.
