Product Overview
A silicone rubber seal ring should be selected for the temperature at its actual joint, including changes during startup and shutdown. The adjoining components may expand differently as they heat, altering the space around the ring. The useful sealing fit therefore needs assessment through the operating cycle rather than only at room temperature during assembly.
Match the ring dimensions and section to the retaining geometry. Keep enough room for the intended deformation without allowing the rubber to escape into an adjacent gap. Select the silicone formulation around the contacting medium as well as the temperature range relevant to the application.
Install without twist and protect the ring from edges along its fitting route. Close the joint evenly so the initial compression is distributed as designed. After a representative operating cycle, inspect for displacement or a permanent shape change that affects the next closure. If leakage appears only after heating or cooling, investigate the changing joint gap alongside the ring condition rather than simply fitting a larger section.
- Material options
- Silicone. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Silicone: 20–80 Shore A. Keep enough room for the intended deformation without allowing the rubber to escape into an adjacent gap.
- Custom dimensions
- Match the ring dimensions and section to the retaining geometry.
- Fit & assembly
- After a representative operating cycle, inspect for displacement or a permanent shape change that affects the next closure.
- Use & inspection

Ordering this custom component
Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Which details should be agreed before tooling?
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
Can a sample help define the replacement?
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
How is the quotation for this part determined?
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
