2. 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.

3. Nitrile rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrile_rubber

   Nitrile rubber was developed in 1931 at BASF and Bayer, then part of chemical conglomerate IG Farben. The first commercial production began in Germany in 1935. [2] [3] IG Farben plant under construction approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from Auschwitz, 1942. The Buna-Werke was a slave labor factory located near Auschwitz and financed by IG ...

4. Gasket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasket

   Internal pressure acts upon the faces of the V, forcing the gasket to seal against the flange faces. Most spiral wound gasket applications will use two standard gasket thicknesses: 1/8 inch and 3/16 inch. With 1/8 inch thick gaskets, compression to a 0.100 inch thickness is recommended. For 3/16 inches, compress to a 0.13 inch thickness.

5. Bonded seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonded_seal

   It is the compression of the elastomeric part between the faces of the parts on either side of the bonded seal that provides the sealing action. The elastomeric material, typically nitrile rubber, is bonded by heat and pressure to the outer ring, which holds it in place. This structure increases resistance to bursting, increasing the pressure ...

6. Wills Ring - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wills_Ring

   A Wills Ring or Cooper Ring is a form of all-metallic O-ring seal. They are used for extremely arduous service, such as sealing the head gasket of high performance piston engines . Hollow, metallic Wills Rings are used as they have better springback than yielding soft metal seals and higher temperature limits than elastomer O rings.

7. EPDM rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EPDM_rubber

   EPDM rubber (ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber) [1] [2] [3] is a type of synthetic rubber that is used in many applications. EPDM is an M-Class rubber under ASTM standard D-1418; the M class comprises elastomers with a saturated polyethylene chain (the M deriving from the more correct term polymethylene).

8. O-ring boss seal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O-ring_boss_seal

   An o-ring boss seal is a technique for joining two fluid-carrying pipes, hoses, or tubing. In an o-ring boss (abbreviated ORB) system, a male-threaded part is inserted into a female-threaded part, providing a mechanical seal. This system differs from others in that a nut is tightened over an o-ring in a chamfered area, creating a fluid-tight ...

9. Hose coupling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hose_coupling

   Hose link is a 1/4-turn bayonet-mount garden hose connection, which uses an o-ring to o-ring seal. It was designed by Hoselink, Pty, Ltd., Australia, [24] and patented in 1998. [25] It is popular in Australia, with limited distribution in the UK and the US, where it is distributed by Dayco Products, Inc.
