Abstract: | Results of investigation into the relationship between friction in the O-ring type seal and gauge pressure at the commencement of linear motion of a shaft are presented and discussed. A number of different O-ring materials were studied and the lowest friction under dry conditions was found to be produced by a PTFE-encapsulated silicone seal. The effect of a number of lubricating fluids on friction in the seal was also studied and the results obtained are included. |
