Advantages of Nitrile Rubber (NBR) O-Rings
- NBR O-rings deliver excellent resistance to oil, water and non-polar solvents, with reliable air tightness for hydraulic and pneumatic sealing systems.
- Nitrile rubber seals offer superior wear resistance and low compression set for long-term repeated sealing.
Disadvantages of Nitrile Rubber (NBR) O-Rings
- NBR O-rings are not suitable for environments with ozone, ketones and other polar solvents, which will cause premature cracking and aging.
Dongguan Ouning Precision has always stuck to the principle of “Superior Quality, Premium Service”. We strictly follow ISO quality standards to continuously optimize precision rubber mold workmanship, earning consistent recognition from global clients.
Our workshop is equipped with imported Dali CNC machining centers (1020 / 860 models), KENT grinders, EDM machines, Japan Miyano (BNA-42C) CNC lathes, and Mitutoyo precision measuring tools. We use UG, PROE, MASTERCAM and CAD software to complete the whole workflow from product drawing to rubber mold production.
We specialize in high-precision mold manufacturing for 45° X-rings, O-rings, shaft oil seals, valve oil seals, Y-rings, U-rings and K-rings silicone rubber sealing components.

Why do we use it?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

How to Select X-Rings | Professional X-Ring Sizing Guide
Choosing the proper X-Ring (star-shaped quad ring) for your sealing application follows these professional selection criteria:
1. Static Seals & Reciprocating Linear Motion
Bore-mounted (housing) seals
The inner diameter of the X-Ring should match the groove dimension, or be roughly 2% smaller than the outer diameter of the groove. The pre-compression creates stable pre-tension and effectively prevents X-Ring twisting during operation.
Shaft-mounted seals
The X-Ring inner diameter needs to equal or slightly exceed the shaft outer diameter by 0.2–0.3 mm, or 1% larger than the shaft OD. This design simplifies installation and extends the service life of the quad ring.
2. Rotary Shaft Sealing
For rotary applications, select an X-Ring whose inner diameter is 2%–5% larger than the shaft diameter.
Rubber X-Rings generate friction heat while rotating, which causes elastomer shrinkage. The enlarged inner diameter maintains proper lubrication and ensures reliable long-term sealing performance.
3. X-Ring Material & Standard Specifications
The most common material is NBR 70 Shore A (N70 nitrile rubber). You can also adopt other elastomer grades that match standard O-Ring material options.
X-Ring dimensions fully conform to universal O-Ring size standards.

NBR O-Ring Advantages & Disadvantages | Silicone Sealing Mold Manufacturing
When manufacturing silicone seal molds and rubber sealing products, NBR O-rings remain the most widely used sealing element. Let’s break down the main advantages and limitations of nitrile rubber O-rings.
Advantages of NBR O-Rings
- NBR O-rings deliver outstanding resistance to water, solvents and mineral oil, plus excellent air tightness for hydraulic and plumbing systems.
- Nitrile rubber features great wear resistance and reliable compression set performance under long-term clamping pressure.
Disadvantages of NBR O-Rings
- NBR seals cannot work well in polar chemical environments. They degrade quickly when exposed to ozone, ketones and other strong polar media.
