Applications

O-ring cords are compressible O-ring gaskets with flexible properties that allow them to be used in various applications and environments. An O-ring cord is a rubber cord with a circular profile that can be cut to the required length to form the required seal. The flexible and versatile material of the O-Ring means it can be used as a sealant for virtually anything, from power transmission to a beer tap, and can be utilised in both fluid or gaseous applications like pneumatic sealing where compressed air and gas are used.
