PLEASE NOTE:
These gland design recommendations from this tool are generated from the data you provide and follow Rubber Manufacturer’s Association (RMA) guidelines and AS568B standards.
They are intended as guidance only. Pre-production testing is required to validate any design and identify potential assembly or performance issues before production. Precix does not control the full assembly design and assumes no liability for incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from the use of this tool or its results.

The gland design recommendations presented above are based upon data that you have provided and are based upon design criteria and standards as outlined by the Rubber Manufacturer’s Association (RMA) and per design standard AS568B. As always, multiple pre-production testing should be invoked to prove out any assembly issues or potential failure modes before production start-up. Precix does not have design control for the complete assembly the o-ring goes into and Precix shall not be liable for any incidental, consequential or special damages that arise from the use of any produce or this software.
