Definition

Cualquier junta compuesta por una o más juntas tóricas elastoméricas. Pueden ser juntas estáticas, en las que no hay movimiento relativo entre las piezas (por ejemplo, una junta tórica entre la carcasa de una bomba y el soporte), o juntas dinámicas, en las que la junta se crea entre un eje móvil y una carcasa fija (por ejemplo, las juntas de eje O-Pro®)

What is an o-ring seal?

O-ring seals are any seal that consists of one or more elastomeric o-rings. These may be static seals wherein there is no relative motion between parts (i.e. an o-ring seal between a pump casing and bracket) or dynamic seals wherein the seal is created between a moving shaft and a stationary housing (i.e. O-Pro® shaft seals).

What is a static o-ring seal?

O-ring seals that are static are between pump parts where there is no relative motion. This can be between head and casing, casing and bracket, and casing and port connections.

What is a dynamic o-ring seal?

Dynamic o-ring seals are created between the rotating shaft and a stationary housing.
