Squeeze
Posted on 01/01/2019 Category:
O-ring compression between two mating surfaces comprising the groove or gland. Can be axial, or squeezed on the top and bottom surfaces, or radial, squeezed on the inner and outer surfaces. Referring to the deformation placed on a rubber part to affect a seal and usually expressed as a percentage of the relaxed original cross-section, it is also occasionally expressed as an absolute value of the deformation.
