O-ring seal Seal Science

O-rings are a Seal Science specialty. Utilizing advanced material science, SSI provides O-ring solutions in many types of elastomeric/ rubber compounds. SSI incorporates advanced materials in its design methodology ranging from Perfluoroelastomers to alloy filled conductives elastomers.

SSI utilizes on-site molding making capabilities to provide molded O-rings from .030” inches OD to over 40.0 inches. SSI has the capability for performance molding of O-rings with ultra critical measurement tolerances, as well as providing less critical, economically costed, high volume supply alternatives.

Seal Science incorporated finite element analysis (FEA) in its O-ring design to develop the most optimal size seal for an application.

SSI has a complete compound development capability to provide O-rings made from current off-the-shelf (COTS), and custom engineered elastomers made from the following:

- Silicones
- Fluorosilicones
- Isoprene
- Nitriles (Lubricated and High Strength)
- Conductive Elastomers
- Perfluoroelastomers
- Styrene-Butadiene (SBR)
- Ethylene acrylic
- Aflas®
- Butyl
- Chloroprene (Neoprene®)
- Ethylene Propylene (EPDM)
- Fluorocarbon GLT & GFLT
- Fluoroelastomers (Viton®)
