  • Understanding O-Rings
    There are a variety of O-rings on the market today which vary widely from manufacturer to manufacturer, the source of the materials used, and even from lot to lot. An O-ring is a round solid rubber seal that, when compressed between two surfaces, blocks the passage of liquids or gasses. O-rings
  • Guide to O-ring Selection
    liquids and gases remain inside the proper areas and potential contaminants stay outside of sensitive areas. Some of the typical industries that regularly make use of O-rings include transportation, medical, electronics, oil and gas, and food and beverage.
  • Vulcanized O-Rings
    An O-ring is a type of mechanical gasket used primarily in static applications to provide reliable sealing. Vulcanizing an O-ring makes it impermeable by liquids and gases, further extending its potential list of applications. At Arizona Sealing Devices, we carefully consider user requirements
  • Recognizing & Avoiding O-Ring Failure
    O-rings are used in just about every industry and typically to block the flow of liquids, gasses, or other materials. Their actual makeup and function is a bit unique, however. Why? In order to function properly the O-ring must deform.
  • How to Choose O-Ring Material for Your Fluid Sealing Applications
    Once installed, O-rings make sure that no liquid or air sweep through the designated area. Since O-rings are crucial to perform effectively after being installed, selecting the right O-ring material is crucial. The crash of space shuttle Challenger in 1986 is a well-documented case of what failure
  • Dealing with Pressure
    The best possible mechanism to prevent leaks due to pressure, and the infiltration or egression of liquids and gasses, is a fastener with an O-ring and a groove
  • Flowmeters Benefit From Silicon Advances
    Unique Sanitary Seal Variflux 6000 sanitary magmeter features a unique L-shaped sealing ring with a uni-directional trapezoidal lip which, unlike regular O-rings, eliminates the problem of bacteria growth by preventing expansion of the rubber seal into the measuring tube. Ultra-smooth tube liner
  • Panel Mountable Pressure Transducers
    . This meant that in a typical panel, the sensor is mounted inside to a panel mounted bulkhead fitting and sealed by means of Teflon tape or face O-ring. The seal between the sensor and bulkhead fitting is critical and if not formed correctly, it can lead to leaks and eventual failure of the system
