O-RING RELATED INFORMATION

Designing the pieces of an application where o-rings will be applied is the focus of this section. Selecting the correct o-rings may be a challenge because in order to seal properly the o-ring has to deform in the application by being compressed and stretched in any number of ways. The design of the groove plays a major role in how the o-ring performs its sealing role.
O-rings are measured in a variety of sizes. Use these pages to learn about them.
The information in ARP 5316 is intended to be utilized by those organizations who do not already have specific recommendations for the control of elastomeric seals.
ISO 3601-3 covers quality acceptance criteria for o-rings in fluid system applications.
GENERAL MATERIAL INFORMATION
Page
Info
O-rings, gaskets and molded products can be made from many different compounds, materials, and in many different combinations and formulations. Here’s a list of the major elastomeric (rubber) compounds and materials from which o-rings, gaskets, seals, and molded rubber are fabricated.
The overwhelming majority of specifications for rubber compounds are based on ASTM D 2000, “Standard Classification for Rubber Products in Automotive Applications” A second standard, SAE J200, “Classification System for Rubber Products”, is for all intents and purposes, identical to ASTM D 2000, so for the purpose of this discussion we will address the ASTM D 2000.
