These are high performance Urethane O-Rings for heavy duty applications. They have outstanding wear and tear resistance, and very low compression set ensuring maximum service life. Due to exceptional material strengths, these O-Rings do not require back-up rings when operating at high temperatures and/or pressures. These are ideal when the design of the cylinder is such that only a small sealing space is available.
