X Rings / Four Lobed Rings

 

X Rings also known as four Lobed rings are used in a variety of static & dynamic sealing applications.

The four lobed design provides twice the sealing surface in comparison to a standard
O-rings. The double seal action requires less squeeze reducing friction & improving seal life.

X-Rings outperform standard o rings in rotary seal applications. The four lobed configuration avoids spiral twisting.

It allows the use of a more narrow groove width than a standard o ring groove but works fine even in a standard O-Ring groove.
