  2. HOW DO YOU DO MECHANICAL SEAL SETTING COMPRESSION? • The compression set test is the rubber’s ability to come back to its original thickness or shape. • It is tested after squeezing it for a long time. • These tests are conducted at high temperatures because they want to simulate real working conditions. • Performance of the end rubber part is recorded after the test. • Each rubber type has to be tested under a specific temperature and for a particular time. • There could be a variation if it is a specific need.

  3. HOW DO YOU DO MECHANICAL SEAL SETTING COMPRESSION? • Due to constant compression load, physical change happens in elastomeric material. • It cannot return to its original size after release. • The amount of material that cannot return to its original size is called a compression set.

  4. HOW DO YOU DO MECHANICAL SEAL SETTING COMPRESSION? • Both static and dynamic seals find this kind of failure. • Due to the compression set failure flat surfaces produce on both sides of the O-ring’s cross-section. • It reduces the sealing potential and efficiency.

  5. What is the reason behind compression set failure?Here are some of the causes. • The choice of elastomer is incorrect. It has poor compression set properties. • The material shows low heat resistance. • There is excessive swelling of material in the system fluid • Excessive squeeze is needed to achieve the seal • Vulcanization or incomplete curing of O-ring material during production

  6. What could be the solutions if you experience a compression set.Here are some solutions. • Use of low set elastomer • Use of O-ring material that resists heat generated due to operation and friction • Check the compatibility of the material with system fluid and chemicals • Reduction in O-ring squeeze as much as possible • Checking O-rings for right physical properties

  7. What could be the solutions if you experience a compression set.Here are some solutions. • It is essential to set formulas for calculating the minimum and maximum O-ring compression. • When you are stuck somewhere, the best thing is to ask some expert. • Nowadays, it is easy to get help online. • Enroll into some authentic site and get the desired information.

  8. Choosing the right material is the key for seal setting • You should understand how the elastomeric material will behave when you select the material. • There are several elastomers in cellular and solid formats. • You can pick one by picking the most appropriate methods and by knowing the fundamental properties of the material.

  9. What could be the solutions if you experience a compression set.Here are some solutions. • The process of selection can be made easy by reducing the choices based on the above research. • Once it happens then a solution development process can be initiated around the particular application. • It involves mating surfaces that are supposed to be sealed. • Other parameters are airflow, pressurized air, gases, fluids, and so on. • The surfaces will affect the choices.
