Custom vulcanized O-Rings are often the fastest and most cost effective solution for static sealing applications requiring a non-standard diameter O-Ring. Vulcanized rings are produced from extruded elastomeric cord, cut to length and hot spliced using heated dies and heat sensitive bonding agents. The heated die provides consistent heat to help form a clean and visually appealing finish to the joint. Cold splicing is typically used on foam elastomers where heat would damage the material.

Oil analysis can play a vital role in hydraulics maintenance, in helping deliver maximum uptime and profitability to your production. If a system fails, contaminated oil is often the primary reason. And yet, oil analysis remains the exception rather than the rule for many users of hydraulic equipment. Therefore, providers of oil analysis services must help hard pressed maintenance engineers really understand the data.
This white paper offers an overview of oil contamination problems, its origins and treatment. It also offers a guide to effective filtration and the role that oil analysis can play in a maintenance program. Most importantly it de-jargonises oil analysis and its reporting, empowering maintenance engineers to really understand the information they are given and helping them make informed choices about their maintenance regimes.
