In the process of equipment maintenance and repair, it is necessary to check and replace the sealing ring in the structure. Sealing rings are generally made of rubber-like soft materials. Improper removal and installation during maintenance can easily damage the sealing ring, resulting in equipment leakage. Below, Silicone O-ring Manufacturers introduces the installation method of the sealing ring:
1. Do not damage the lips: if there is a slight scar on the lips, it may cause obvious leakage;
2. Regular inspection to prevent overdue aging: regular inspection to prevent leakage of wear and aging phenomena, and replace new sealing rings in time;
3. The replacement models and specifications must be consistent: in strict accordance with the requirements, the sealing rings of the same specifications should be selected to ensure the sealing requirements;
4. Replace qualified products: check the elasticity and surface quality before replacement, and use a smooth surface without defects such as bumps and cracks;
5. Installation: It is best to use special tools to avoid scratching your hands with the sharp metal edge of the groove. Before installation, clean the groove and apply some lubricating oil on the lip. Do not knock it in hard. First, press the sealing ring into the groove. Then gradually press in completely and evenly.
