Joined O-rings (vulcanized)

Joined O-rings (vulcanised O-rings)

Joined O-rings, also known as Joined O-rings, are manufactured on demand from O-ring cord in the materials NBR, FKM, VMQ, EPDM and some other materials. This is often chosen when an O-ring in a particular size is not available (at short notice). This alternative to an O-ring is manufactured by vulcanising O-ring cord to size. Vulcanisation, using the same compound, is a higher-quality option than bonding. Joined O-rings (without glue welding) are suitable for static applications. Unlike bonding, the hot-welded joint does not have a hard glued point. The spot where the Joined O-rings is vulcanised should not be stretched, as the elasticity at this point is significantly less.

Joined O-rings are available on request in the compounds NBR, FKM, VMQ and EPDM.
