Selection & Fitting Notes
- Specify inside diameter (ID) and cross-section (CS) rather than outside diameter - CS is what actually fills the groove and does the sealing.
- For a static face seal, the groove is normally sized so the ring occupies most but not all of the groove volume; overfilling drives up closing force and permanent set.
- Softer compounds conform to rough or uneven flanges, harder compounds resist extrusion when there is pressure behind the seal. Pick hardness against your surface finish and pressure, not by habit.
- Moulded rings carry a parting line. If it must stay off the sealing face, say so on the drawing.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lead time for Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring?
Stock profiles of this type are held in inventory and can ship immediately. Custom extrusions of Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring take 2-4 weeks, including tooling and production. Expedited service is available if you need the parts sooner.
Can I get samples of Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring before placing a full order?
Yes. We can send prototype samples or run a small trial batch of Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring so you can test fit, compression set and performance before committing to a production order. Sample policy and freight terms are confirmed together with your quotation.
Do you make the tooling for Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring in-house?
Yes. We build our own extrusion dies and tooling in-house, which shortens lead times for custom blue high-wear silicone o-ring and keeps dimensional accuracy and batch-to-batch repeatability under tighter control.
How do I choose the hardness for Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring?
Match hardness to the job, not to habit. Softer compounds seat against rough or pitted flanges and seal at lower closing force; harder compounds resist being pushed into the clearance gap when there is pressure behind the seal. This profile is supplied at 55~70 Shore A - tell us your surface finish and pressure and we will confirm whether that is right.
What dimensions should I specify when ordering Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring?
Give inside diameter and cross-section, plus the groove dimensions if you have them. Cross-section is what fills the groove and does the sealing, so it is the dimension worth tolerancing tightly. A groove drawing is the fastest way for us to check the fit before tooling.
Will the mould parting line affect the seal on Blue High-Wear Silicone O-Ring?
Moulded rings have a parting line where the two mould halves meet. On most static seals it sits away from the sealing face and causes no problem. If your design puts it on the sealing surface, flag it on the drawing so we can discuss the tooling approach.
