Make your own o-rings! (One small kit, infinite o-ring sizes) | ⛵ Sailing Britaly ⛵

Описание: 🔔 SUBSCRIBE - it's FREE!!! ➜ https://www.sailingbritaly.com/subscribe O-rings are insignificant little things - but not if you need one to fix your boat! O-ring splicing kits are cheap and if you have one on board you can make a perfectly sized o-ring in minutes.

This video shows me making two o-rings to fix a leaking faucet on our small sailing boat.

This O-Ring splicing kit is made of Black Buna-N, has a durometer of 70A, and includes 9 pieces of o-ring cord in metric cross sections, 1 meter of cord per piece. The cord has a Round cross-section and can be used across a wide temperature range from -67 degrees F (-55 degrees C) to 257 degrees F (125 degrees C). The splicing kit comes in a plastic box with lid card, instructions, cord stock, splicing jig, cutting tool, and adhesive.

The kit includes the following cord sizes: 1 Meter of 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm, 5mm, 5.7mm, 8.4mm O-Ring Cord Stock.

Buna-nitrile can have high tensile strength, as well as abrasion, tear, and compression set resistance. It is compatible for use with petroleum, hexafluoroacetone (HFA), hexafluoro-2-butyne (HFB) and hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) fluids, vegetable oil, alcohol, acids, and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Buna-nitrile is vulnerable to acetone, ethers, esters, ozone, sunlight and weathering, and should not be used in ozone-generating electric motors, welding equipment, or in applications with exposure to UV light.
