Updated O-Ring calculator from Trelleborg

Trelleborg Sealing Solutions has made available a free programme to provide an easy method of calculating O-Ring specifications and housing designs.

The O-Ring calculator has specific benefits, which help save the time and energy of engineers from all industries where O-Rings are the primary seal.

Originally launched in 2005, this industry-leading programme has now been updated.

The Trelleborg Sealing Solutions O-Ring calculator is industry leading.

With its unique functions, it is wholly intuitive and therefore remarkably easy to use.

Functions of the calculator include a sizing capability, recommendation on design parameters and complete measurements.

Results and comments may be printed, saved on-line or filed as a PDF.

Incorporating a great deal of 'sealing expertise', the calculator even considers the complexities of compression, seal expansion and groove fill, whilst enabling the user to add notes to the results.

The benefits of having this easy to use calculator are considerable and translate into certainty of design and substantial timesaving.

Well received by engineers globally since its launch in 2005, it has been updated inline with their needs.

New features make the programme even more versatile and user-friendly.

Enhancements in the latest update include:.

* Design recommendations for a broader range of materials including perfluoroelastomers.

* Warning messages when there are input errors or deviations from design recommendations.

* Operating temperatures for elastomer groups take into account cross section changes.

* Linear thermal expansion coefficients are included as preset values which can be overwritten.

* Design recommendations are available at the click of an i-button.
