Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE- Teflon®, etc.) Back-up Rings
from Hi-Tech Seals, Inc.
Back-up rings are plastic or rubber rings used to prevent the O-ring from entering the clearance gap. When high pressures are exerted on the O-ring its soft rubber material can be forced into the clearance gap caused the O-ring to extrude. The hard back-up ring material will keep the O-ring material... [See More]
