X-RINGS
X-rings can be used in place of O-rings in a variety of static and
dynamic applications. With the unique 4-lobe configuration, X-rings have 2
sealing areas per side as opposed to 1 sealing area on an O-ring. X-rings
require less squeeze to maintain an effective seal; therefore, reducing friction
and increasing seal life. Their 4-lobe configuration also helps to eliminate the
seal from twisting in the groove causing premature failure.
X-rings have the same dimensions as the AS568A O-ring sizes, also referred to
as standard size O-rings. They are available from stock at Satori Seal in
Nitrile 70. X-rings are also available in other compounds to suit your
particular application.
