Sealey Vs5211 O-Ring Removal Tool Set 4Pc

Product Information

The o-ring is made of NBR; it has an inner diameter, cross-section, and outer diameter of 5.7, 1.9, and 9.5 mm, respectively. Position the testing device over the o-ring and lift the weight to the topmost point of the tube. Then allow it to drop onto the o-ring. Proper o-ring installation ensures proper sealing of mechanical systems, preventing fluids and gasses from leaking out or entering unwanted areas. Installing an o-ring involves several crucial steps that must be performed carefully to avoid damaging the o-ring or compromising its performance. Here's a general overview of the installation process: O Ring Gauge– The instrument allows you to identify the size of almost any O Ring Seal and meets the BS1806 and AS568 Standards. Extraction and Insertion damage is reduced. Using metal objects to remove O Rings can cause damage to the housing and equipment which then create a leak path that affects the integrity of the seal

Gaskets are a type of mechanical seal that sits between two mating component surfaces, improving the performance of each while preventing leaks or ingress of pressurised/compressed fluids.

The lubricant chosen must be: This change of mind return policy is in addition to, and does not affect your rights under the Australian Consumer Law including any rights you may have in respect of faulty items. To return faulty items see our Returning Faulty Items policy. You use the Pi Tape from ERIKS to determine the inside diameter of an O-ring. Useful, as you can measure the exact size you need for your application. The tape has two scales; metric on one side and the AS sizes on the other side.

High-viscosity silicone oil: High viscosity silicone oil is an ideal all-purpose o-ring lubricant. It is an incredibly efficient seal lubricant and can be utilized in temperatures between -54 𐩑C - 204 𐩑C (-65 𐩑F - 400 𐩑F). O Ring Lube– Make the installation of your O Ring easier with Lube. Formulated to facilitate installation and extended service life of synthetic rubber O Rings and Seals. Learn more about why and when to use O Ring Lube here. O-rings work under heavy compression, distorting slightly to fill the void and prevent leaks. They’re often made from elastomers like nitrile rubber and silicone but also come in plastics, metals and other materials.

A small scratch in an O-ring groove can create a leak path and adversely affect the integrity of the seal. Benefits of PPE’s O-ring removal tool: This testing device comprises of a tube containing a specific magnitude weight (Figure 6 labeled A). The weight descends a predetermined distance for each material, as shown on Figure 6. The o-ring has a durometer of 70 Shore A. Shore A is a commonly used durometer scale to measure the hardness of rubber materials. The Shore A scale measures the indentation hardness of the material, which is the material's resistance to permanent indentation or deformation caused by a sharp object pressing against it. The higher the number on the Shore A scale, the harder and less flexible the material. A durometer of 70 Shore A means that the material has a medium hardness, with some resistance to deformation under pressure but still capable of some degree of flexibility.Choosing the correct o-ring material for a replacement requires consideration of various factors, including the application's operating conditions and the material compatibility with the fluid being used. Several methods are available to identify the material if it has not been initially discovered. Use a rubber indicator test
