??Ideal storage state of the rubber O-ring

??Rubber O-ring as a reserve parts during storage may alter its physical and chemical nature of the failure. Such as: distortion, oxygen, ozone, light, heat, moisture, oil, or the effects of chemical solvents, etc., rubber O-ring needs to be done during the storage and maintenance of the basic plot and prolong life.

??The rubber O-ring storage method can be recommended that you use

??A rubber O-ring storage temperature: 5-25 ?. Avoid contact with heat and sunlight. From the seals removed cryopreservation state, you should first put the environment 20 ?, and then reused.

??2 rubber O-ring storage humidity: the warehouse should be lower than 70%, to avoid too wet or too dry, non-condensation phenomenon.

??3 rubber O-ring illumination Storage: Avoid strong sunlight and artificial light containing UV. UV bags offer the best protection. Colored red or orange coating or film on the recommendations posted warehouse windows.

??4 rubber O-ring storage radiation: ionizing radiation to prevent seal damage.

??5 rubber O-ring to store oxygen and ozone: rubber materials should avoid exposure to circulating air. Packaging can be wound, stored in airtight containers, or other suitable means for this purpose. For most harmful ozone elastomer, warehouse to avoid the following equipment: mercury vapor lamps, high-voltage electrical equipment, motors and other equipment.

??6 rubber O-ring storage process variants: rubber parts should be placed as far as possible in a free state, avoid the tension, compression or other deformation or hollow packaging.

??7 Cleaning: If necessary, you can use soap and water to clean the seal. But the water should not be exposed fiber reinforced seals, rubber-metal bonded seals, AU seal material. Disinfectants, organic solvents and sharp edges of the tool should not be used. Seals after cleaning to dry at room temperature should not be near a heat source.

??XinhuaXu Rubber Products Company Reminder: polyurethanes, thermoplastic material can be stored for four years; nitrile rubber, hydrogenated nitrile rubber, chloroprene rubber can be stored for six years; ethylene propylene rubber can be stored for eight years; fluorine rubber, silicone rubber, fluorine silicone rubber can be stored for 10 years; perfluororubbers store 20 years; PTFE can be stored indefinitely.
