With flat edges on all four sides, these O-rings make contact with a larger surface area than round-profile O-rings. The increased contact creates a better seal in static applications, such as hose, pipe, and faucet connections.

Made of silicone, these O-rings withstand temperatures up to 400° F. They have flat edges on all four sides, so they cover more surface than round-profile O-rings.

The flat edges of this cord stock contact more surface area than round-profile cord stock, forming a tighter seal in faucets and other stationary parts. It’s also less likely to twist or shift in equipment with repeated pressure changes, such as molding machines.
