X-Rings
X-Rings provide significant advantages in rotary sealing applications. Their four-lobed design improves sealing performance by providing more contact area and a tighter seal. This feature is particularly useful in preventing spiral twisting, which can lead to seal failure in standard O-rings. As a result, x rings are often used in rotary systems where reliability and longevity are critical.

X-Rings provide significant advantages in rotary sealing applications. Their four-lobed design improves sealing performance by providing more contact area and a tighter seal. This feature is particularly useful in preventing spiral twisting, which can lead to seal failure in standard O-rings. As a result, x rings are often used in rotary systems where reliability and longevity are critical.
The unique design of x-rings also allows them to function in narrower grooves than O-rings, saving space without compromising performance. This makes them highly versatile and suitable for various industrial applications, from automotive to heavy machinery, where both static and dynamic seals are required.
X ring cross-section and ID are measured just like o-rings. Please refer to our sizing charts for dimensions.
