Waterproof X Rings Sealing High Durability For Durometer / Petroleum Oils

X-Rings, also known as Quad-Rings®, can be used in a wide variety of static and dynamic sealing applications.

The four-lobed design provides twice the sealing surface in comparison to a standard o-ring.   The double-seal action requires less squeeze to maintain an effective seal.  This reduction in squeeze means less friction and improved seal life.

X-Ring parting lines are between the lobes, away from the sealing surface, thus eliminating the problems of leakage often resulting from a parting line\'s irregular surface as found on an O-Ring.

X-Rings are designed to outperform a standard O-Ring in rotary seal applications.   The four-lobed configuration creates a more stable seal avoiding spiral twisting.   This allows the use of a more narrow groove width than a standard O-Ring groove, but can also be used in a standard O-Ring groove.

Buna-N, also know as nitrile, o-ring is common and the most simplest types of seal with an excellent sealing property and durability. Recommended for use with crude oil, gasoline, propane, petroleum oils and water. It is used in engines, gearboxes and also can be found in anything from shower heads, garden hoses, pumps up to an aircraft. The “X” profile creates a stable seal that is more resistant to rolling in the groove than an O-Ring when used in a dynamic application. Multi-lobed design provides more sealing surfaces than standard O-Rings. Multi-lobed design provides more sealing surfaces than standard O-Rings. Grooves on the inside and outside diameter of these rings retain lubricant thereby lowering friction and extending packing life
