The O-Ring Pick Sets allow for easy access to areas where fingers are not able to fit or where a more accurate/delicate touch is required.

Factors to Consider When Picking O-rings They include but are not limited to operating conditions, chemical compatibility, sealing pressure, temperature, durometer, size, and cost. Depending on the specific situation, you may also look at abrasion, tear, ozone, electrical resistance properties.

A thin layer of mineral oil, grease, silicone oil or application fluid is often sufficient. Make sure that the type of rubber used is resistant to the grease used. For example, a VMQ (silicone) rubber is not compatible with silicone grease.

We like the double o-ring seal for higher pressure applications with high viscosity products where the single o-ring seal just doesn't hold up, but we still want to use low cost, easy to maintain seal. Typically, these applications run between 100-120 PSI discharge.
