O-링 크기를 정확하게 측정하는 방법은?

O-링 크기를 잘못 측정하면 누출, 가동 중단 및 제품 고장으로 이어질 수 있습니다. 장비에 맞는 크기를 찾는 데 어려움을 겪고 계신가요?

Knowing how to measure an O‑ring size accurately is essential to ensure proper sealing, reduce replacements, and avoid costly mismatches. Here’s a practical guide to help you do it right.

What are the key O‑ring dimensions you should measure?

O‑rings aren’t one‑size‑fits‑all—they need three critical measurements:

  1. 내경(ID)
  2. 외경(OD)
  3. Cross‑Section (CS)

How do you measure O‑ring size step by step?

Over the years, I’ve taught many customers how to avoid seal mismatches by measuring correctly. Here's how to do it:

Best tools and measurement techniques for O‑rings

도구 사용 사례
디지털 또는 버니어 캘리퍼스 Measure ID and CS precisely
O-Ring Size Cone Ideal for small rings
Groove Gauges Check housing fit

Step-by-step guide:

  1. 측정하다 ID using caliper across the ring inside.
  2. 측정하다 CS by laying the ring flat and measuring wall thickness.
  3. Calculate 오디 as ID + 2 × CS, or measure directly if accessible.

Pro tips:
• Don’t stretch the ring.
• Measure at room temperature.
• Compare with a new sample from an o‑ring assortment kit for worn rings.

Real-world example:
An automotive client misread OD and used 24 mm rings instead of 22.5 mm. Switching to our measured-grade FKM O‑rings and using groove gauges reduced leakage by 87%.


Why are accurate O‑ring measurements critical for performance?

Even a 0.5 mm mismatch can cause:

  • 유체 누출
  • Seal fatigue
  • 압력 불균형
  • Safety risks or recalls

Always verify dimensions before ordering. Refer to size charts like this:

How to distinguish metric vs inch O‑ring sizes?

Units and standards differ:

특징 미터법(mm) Inch (inches)
기준 ISO 3601 표준 AS568 (SAE)
Example 24.3 × 2.4 mm 1‑1/16” × 3/32”
Region 유럽, 아시아 북아메리카

Swapping standards without checking can break sealing. Learn more in our guide:

What should you do if your O‑ring is deformed or swollen?

If a ring looks warped, measure the groove dimensions instead. Compare with online charts or reach out for a custom replacement.


How to measure O‑rings already installed in a groove?

사용하다 depth gauge to get the groove’s depth (matching CS), and a caliper to measure ID across the groove. This ensures accurate sizing without removal.


Best practices for measuring worn or used O‑rings

  • Always cross-check ID and CS
  • Avoid direct surface scratches
  • Use calibrated tools regularly
  • Replace rings showing deformation
  • Double-check units—mm vs inches

결론

Getting O‑ring measurements right means better sealing, longer service life, and fewer replacements.

사람들은 또한 묻습니다

1. Do I need a caliper or is a ruler okay?
Calipers provide precise readings. Rulers may introduce parallax errors.
2. Is it safe to stretch an O‑ring to measure?
Minor stretch (<5%) is acceptable, but any more can distort results.
3. How to measure O‑rings in grooves without removal?
Use depth gauges for CS and calipers for ID measurement.
4. Do materials affect measurement tolerance?
Yes—materials like FKM expand with heat. Always measure after ambient stabilization.
5. Can old, deformed rings still be measured?
Measure groove dimensions instead or use a reference kit for comparison.
6. Do you offer custom O‑ring sizing services?
Yes, we provide custom O‑ring kits 최소주문수량 없음.
7. How do I reorder the exact same O‑ring quickly?
Send us your previous ring dimensions or the part code from your O‑ring kit—we’ll handle the rest.
8. What tools should I regularly calibrate?
Calipers, depth gauges, and groove gauges should be recalibrated annually to maintain accuracy.
