Underground Utilities Challenges and Requirements

It is essential that all O-rings, seals, gaskets, and sealing materials used for underground applications are specifically designed for such use. Not every O-ring is suitable for every application, and it is critical to only use approved seals for underground utilities and projects.

Depending on the application, certain standards must be followed and met. Contact us for assistance in determining the right O-rings for your operation. Our team can help you understand industry-specific regulations and offer solutions that meet your needs.

Recommended Seal Materials for Underground Utilities and Equipment

Not all O-rings and gaskets are created equal. Different materials and compounds are better suited to unique or specific operations. These rubber materials are approved and recommended for underground applications:
