Elastomer Descriptions and PropertiesThere are various elastomers that function differently based on the environments and stresses they are put in. Here is a list of all the elastomers APG has to offer. |

Backup RingsBackup rings are commonly installed with rubber O-Rings to help improv their performance. These rings are designed to limit o-ring clearance gaps and be used in high pressure sealing situations greater than 1500 PSI. |
|
Square Cut RingsSquare Cut O-Rings are exactly like normal O-Rings, except that their cross-sections are square instead of circular. This design increases their working pressure, and form fit more snugly in some spaces. |
