square section o rings
Square and rectangular rubber o-rings
In response to the specific needs of our customers, we present to you square o-rings. These are rectangular or square cross-section o-ring seals made of NBR rubber. The material used in their production is a type of synthetic rubber that provides flexibility and high durability for rectangular seals, effectively fulfilling their purpose. Due to the unique shape, o-rings work excellently in static connections (where they can be used as an alternative to round cross-section o-rings) and in moving machine parts.
They are most commonly used in hydraulic drives and controls, as well as in the automotive industry. O-rings are the simplest and most commonly used type of seals. To ensure satisfaction with their use, we employ modern production methods that guarantee the durability and quality of our square cross-section o-rings. We understand the importance of reliability and we are able to provide it. Explore our offer to learn more. Feel free to contact us to start our cooperation.

The destiny and properties of square O-rings
Oring square seals, also known as rectangular section seals, are specialized sealing elements used in applications requiring increased contact surface area and better resistance to compression. Their unique shape provides higher stability in seal grooves and minimizes the risk of twisting during assembly and operation. With a larger contact surface area with the sealed surface, square orings offer better resistance to high pressure, making them an ideal choice for hydraulic, pneumatic, and industrial systems where traditional round orings may deform. They are most commonly produced from elastomers resistant to chemical agents, temperature, and pressure, such as: - NBR (acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber) - resistant to oils, fuels, and greases, used in hydraulic and pneumatic systems - FKM (fluoroelastomer rubber, Viton®) - excellent resistance to high temperatures, chemicals, and aggressive industrial substances - EPDM - high resistance to ozone, weather conditions, and water, ideal for water and steam systems - Silicone - excellent flexibility over a wide temperature range, used in the food and pharmaceutical industries Square orings are widely used in the automotive, machinery, chemical industries, as well as in hydraulic and pneumatic systems where traditional seals may not provide sufficient durability.
What are the benefits of using square o-rings?
Increased Contact Area - Better Seal
Thanks to their square or rectangular cross-section, these gaskets have a larger contact surface with sealing elements, ensuring higher sealing efficiency, especially under high-pressure conditions.
Greater Resistance to Deformation and Compression
Compared to traditional round O-rings, square O-rings exhibit less susceptibility to permanent deformation under long-term loads, extending their lifespan and operational effectiveness.
Reduced Risk of Twisting and Displacement
Their specific geometry prevents uncontrolled rotation within the sealing groove, significantly reducing the risk of leaks and system failures.
Resistance to Extreme Operating Conditions
High-quality materials used in the production of square and rectangular O-rings provide excellent resistance to oils, chemicals, high temperatures, and pressures, making them an ideal choice for industrial applications.
Suitable for Dynamic and Static Seals
Square O-rings are versatile and can be used in both static seals (stationary connections) and dynamic seals (moving elements, e.g., pistons and actuators).
