Set, Stress Relaxation, and Rebound
Understanding Compression Set, Stress Relaxation, and Rebound in O-Ring Performance O-rings are among the most widely used sealing components in hydraulic systems, pneumatic equipment, automotive assemblies, industrial machinery, aerospace equipment, medical devices, food processing systems, and electronic connectors. Their sealing capability depends not only on the material itself but also on several critical mechanical properties that determine long-term sealing reliability.
