20KD Face and Static Seals

High Performance O-Ring Upgrade for Static Sealing

The Chesterton 20K D‑Ring is a continuous compression seal designed for use in static applications and is often applied as an upgrade to conventional face seals or O‑Rings. The 20KD design provides excellent performance in static applications in hydraulic or pneumatic equipment, including flange and valve control units.

The 20KD optimum design provides minimum seal deformation through a better fit in the seal cavity and excellent pressure distribution through the seal cross section, which is accomplished through improved geometrical and dimensional stability. 20K D‑Rings can withstand higher operating pressures compared to conventional O‑Rings.
