PRODUCT PORTFOLIO OF THE DICHTOMATIK BRAND STATIC APPLICATIONS TRANSLATIONAL MOVEMENTS The whole range of static seals – O-rings, cords, x-rings, cover seals, bolt seals, flange and profile seals, etc. – is available in a large number of dimensions – metric, inch and other international standards. The variety of materials, also with application-specific certifications, leaves nothing to be desired. Pistons and rod seals, wipers, guide belts and rings for hydraulics are available from stock in countless standard dimensions in the materials NBR, PTFE, TPU, hard fabric and NBR fabric-reinforced....

O-RINGS – A CLASSIC FOR MODERN TIMES O-rings are circumferentially closed, circular sealing e lements made of elastomeric materials and are produced by way of vulcanization in molds. The O-ring achieves its sealing effect by deforming the cross section after installation and pressing in the installation space and can be pressed radially or axially inside the installation space. In the operating condition, the media pressure strengthens the sealing function, since the elastomer material behaves like an incompressible fluid under pressure.

SPECIAL APPLICATIONS O-rings are mainly used to seal stationary machines and system components (static application) against liquid and gaseous media, e.g. flange and cover seals, pipe fittings and the cylinder head and base in hydraulic cylinders. Under c ertain conditions, O-rings can also be used for reciprocating, rotating and superimposed screw movements (dynamic application). If the installation space is designed properly, they are constructed properly and the correct material is chosen, pressures up to 1,000 bar can be sealed. If necessary, back-up-rings must be used. O-rings are used in...

QUALITY ASSURANCE For Dichtomatik brand products, we actively strive for product quality with a zero-defect target through coordination with customers and production. Our batch tracing system allows every step in the supply chain to be traced back and for statements to be made regarding product characteristics and ingredients. Batch information is p rovided on the product labels as well as on the corresponding delivery bills.

DIMENSIONAL INSPECTION SHAPE AND SURFACE TESTING The measurement of the inner diameter (Ø d1) is preferably performed with the help of non-contact optical measuring machines and measuring microscopes. For large dimensions, conical and step plug gauges are also used. For O-rings with an inner diameter of more than 250 mm, c ircumferential measuring tapes are also used. The O-ring cross section (cord thickness Ø d2) is measured with a force-reduced measuring probe. The contact force exerted between the probe surfaces should be 1 N. The dimensional tolerances are based on DIN ISO 36011, Industrial...
