Buna-N O-Ring Kits | Polypac Hydraulic Seal Solutions

Buna-N O-Ring Kits — Reliable Sealing from Polypac

Product Overview

Polypac's Buna-N O-Ring Kits are engineered for dependable sealing in hydraulic, pneumatic and industrial applications. Formulated from High Quality NBR (Buna-N), these kits combine oil, fuel and hydraulic fluid resistance with excellent mechanical strength. Each kit includes a range of cross-sections and diameters for maintenance, prototyping and on-site repair, making them an essential maintenance item for service teams and OEMs.

Materials & Performance

Buna-N (NBR) delivers balanced performance across temperature and chemical environments: typical operating range -40°C to +120°C, strong resistance to mineral oils, greases and many hydraulic fluids, and good abrasion and compression set properties. Polypac tailors hardness, tolerances and compound formulations to meet specific pressure and dynamic sealing requirements, ensuring optimal longevity and leak prevention for rotating, reciprocating and static interfaces.

Applications & Industries

Our Buna-N O-Ring Kits are widely used in hydraulic cylinders, pumps, valves, compressors, automotive assemblies and industrial equipment. Customers across construction, agricultural machinery, oil & gas, and manufacturing rely on Polypac kits for fast repairs, scheduled maintenance and OEM supply. Kits are organized for quick identification and field deployment that minimize downtime.

Customization & Quality Assurance

Polypac combines 10,000 m² of manufacturing capability (8,000 m² factory) with advanced production and testing equipment. Since 2008 we have expanded from PTFE-filled seals to a broad elastomer portfolio including NBR, FKM, silicone, EPDM and FFKM. Our R&D partnerships with universities and institutes enable custom compounds and dimensional control for special working conditions. Every Buna-N O-Ring Kit undergoes strict inspection and performance testing to meet industry standards.

Why Choose Polypac

As an award-winning seal manufacturer and oil seal supplier, Polypac delivers technical expertise, rapid customization and reliable supply. Our Buna-N O-Ring Kits are designed to reduce leaks, extend component life and simplify maintenance logistics. Contact Polypac for tailored kit configurations, material datasheets and application support to ensure the right Buna-N O-Ring Kits for your equipment.

FAQ:
What is the purpose of the metal spring in a rotary shaft seal?

The garter spring in a shaft seal (e.g., FSKR, SPGO types) provides a constant radial force on the sealing lip. This ensures consistent contact with the rotating shaft, compensating for minor wear, eccentricity, and vibration to prevent lubricant leakage.

Why did my O-ring fail prematurely?

Common causes of O-ring failure include: Chemical Incompatibility: Swelling, softening, or cracking due to fluid exposure. Improper Sizing: Using an incorrect size leads to over-compression or inadequate sealing force. Abrasion: Wear and tear from rough surface finishes or contaminated fluid. Extrusion: The seal is forced into the gap between metal parts under high pressure. Installation Damage: Nicks, cuts, or twists during assembly.

What is the difference between NBR and FKM materials?

NBR (Nitrile/Buna-N): A general-purpose, cost-effective material with excellent resistance to petroleum-based oils and fuels. It has a standard temperature range of -30°C to +100°C (-22°F to +212°F). FKM (Fluoroelastomer/Viton®): A premium material with excellent resistance to high temperatures (up to 200°C+), chemicals, and oils. It is used in more severe environments but is more expensive than NBR.

When should I use a spring-energized seal instead of a standard elastomeric seal?

Consider a spring-energized seal (e.g., GSF, SPN types) for demanding applications involving: Extreme Temperatures (below -30°C or above +200°C) Aggressive Chemicals that elastomers can't handle Very Low Leakage or "Zero Leakage" requirements Poor Lubricity or dry running conditions The internal spring maintains constant sealing force, compensating for wear and system variables.

How do I choose the right material for my sealing application?

Material selection depends on four key factors: Media: What fluid or gas will the seal contact? (e.g., petroleum oil, water, chemicals, steam) Temperature: What is the minimum and maximum operating temperature? Pressure: What is the system's operating pressure? Are there pressure spikes? Application: Is it a static, dynamic, or rotary seal? Example: NBR (Buna-N) is excellent for standard hydraulic oil, while FKM (Viton®) is needed for high temperatures or aggressive chemicals.
