O ring compression force.
Parker s o ring selector is an engineering tool which offers o ring material and size selection combined in one tool.
Figure 5 primary wall contact stress profile for unrestrained unlubricated axially loaded o ring the only fixed case stress parameters results vernacular for this discussion includes primary wall and lateral wall the primary wall or walls are the surfaces which move together to force the compression of the o ring.
Clamping force calculations can be quite complicated.
The force generated by the o ring compression can be calculated there is some data for this in the handbook link below but it s easier to just make up a rig and test it using the o ring compound of your choice.
Info o ring compression.
O ring compression force is the force required to compress an o ring the amount necessary to maintain an adequate sealing line of contact.
Gap mm sealing gap mm with an eriks account you can save open or delete your designs.
Both are interlinked thus ensuring the best possible combination of the calculated o ring size and material choice.
See torque force design equations webpage and torque chart page for recommended fastener torque and equation data.

The o ring calculator tool is intended to form the basis of an o ring installation and assist with selection of o ring and hardware dimensions.
O ring compression groove depth incl.

Make sure the groove has more cross section area than the original o ring add a bit extra to allow for thermal expansion.
