Optimizing O-Ring Selection for Ball Valve Performance
In the design and application of ball valves, O-rings play a critical role as essential sealing components. The sealing performance of the O-ring directly affects the ball valve's operational efficiency and lifespan. When selecting the material and hardness of O-rings, it is important to consider the valve's working environment, the type of medium, and the temperature and pressure requirements. Common O-ring materials include fluorocarbon rubber (FKM), nitrile rubber (NBR), silicone rubber...
