Buna-N X-Rings & Square Rings

X-rings offer an excellent alternative for many sealing applications. An X-ring is designed to fit between two parts to fill the gap between them once compressed, whereas an O-ring sits in a groove and compresses when assembled in both dynamic and static applications.

X-rings, also known as QUAD-Rings, provide additional sealing benefits over other sealing solutions with at least four sealing surfaces. The most notable advantages of QUAD-rings/X-rings over O-rings include:

1.Deeper grooves for increased lubrication retention

2.Four lips to provide more sealing capacity

3.High stability for dynamic applications

4.Resist roll more than O-ring, providing higher spiral failure resistance

5.High lubrication retention to prolong the life of the seal

6.Multiple seal points, requiring less compressive force to create an effective seal
