What is X ring

X ring, its cross-section presents a star or X-shaped seal, also known as x-shaped ring. It is also a four-lip seal ring. DSH seals tells you that the X ring is actually an improved sealing ring of the H section seals. The X ring has a small clearance and is particularly effective as a substitute for the O ring in low-speed applications. 

Whether used for pistons or piston rods, a good sealing effect can be obtained. Under low pressure conditions, the U-shaped ring only relies on the interference deformation of the lip to produce a seal. Due to the small contact area, the friction force is relatively low. High, the elastic deformation of the lip increases, and the tension, compression and bending stress increase. So as to ensure good sealing performance under high pressure.
