Due to the complexity that characterizes the process industry, fluids that can be aggressive for the sealing elements in valves, such as O-rings, are often used. This is explained in another article published in our blog:\u00a0\u00a0\u201cSome sealing solutions in valves\u201d.<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

O-rings are manufactured from elastic materials, also known as \u201celastomers\u201d. The most common elastomer materials are usually:<\/span><\/p>\n
