Precautions for using sealing rings

The sealing ring has the characteristics of anti-aging, stable friction coefficient, convenient installation and maintenance, corrosion resistance, etc. It is widely used. Its material determines its performance. The following content will share with you the precautions for using sealing rings:

1. Cannot force installation
When installing the sealing ring, special tools should be used to first press the sealing ring into the seat hole. Note that a hammer cannot be used to strike it, and then a simple cylinder can be used to pass through the spline part, which can protect the lip edge of the sealing ring.

2. Proper lubrication can be applied before installation
Before installing the sealing ring, apply lubricating oil to the lips to facilitate installation and prevent burns during operation. It is also important to pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene. The sealing ring manufacturer reminds everyone of this.

3. Do not use old sealing rings
Even when using a newly purchased sealing ring from a manufacturer, it is important to carefully inspect its surface quality to ensure that there are no defects such as protrusions, small holes, grooves, or cracks, and to ensure sufficient elasticity for normal installation work.

4. Install using specialized tools
During installation, professional tools should be used, all parts of the hydraulic system should be strictly cleaned, and fingers should be prevented from being scratched by metal edges. Therefore, be careful when operating.

5. Pay attention to the installation direction
Do not install the sealing ring in the opposite direction, and do not damage the lip edge. If there are significant scratches on the lip edge, it should be replaced as it may cause oil leakage.

When installing and using sealing rings, it is necessary to follow the correct operating requirements and not let the equipment work in overloaded or complex environments for a long time; When replacing the sealing ring, it is important to maintain the same size as the original one and strictly follow the instructions for replacement.
