O-ring is a solid-rubber seal shaped like a doughnut or torus. When compressed between mating surfaces, an O-ring blocks the passage of liquids or gases.
An O-ring functions as a mechanical seal or gasket, typically crafted from elastomeric materials like natural or synthetic rubber. These components find extensive usage across various industrial settings. Primarily, O-rings serve to prevent the passage of air, liquid, or any fluid through mechanical joints. They are strategically placed within grooves and compressed between multiple parts during assembly, effectively forming a seal at the connecting interface.
