Metal detectable O-rings
¿Sabías que hay juntas tóricas capaces de detectar el metal?
El uso de las juntas tóricas en las industrias alimentarias y farmacéuticas es muy habitual. La mayoría de los equipos convencionales de detección de metales son capaces de revelar inmediatamente dicha alerta de contaminación.
A diferencia de otras industrias donde el material de la junta o su resistencia a altas...
Does the size 4.47 × 1.78 mean anything to you?
You won’t find more materials available anywhere else!
Whereas in the previous post we talked about the importance (or not) of size, this time we are going to talk about the relevance of a specific size. If you are asking yourself why, then just keep reading.
The JIOrings warehouses hold a stock of more than 30 million O-rings of different inside diameters, cross-sections,...
Another year ends

Quality as a synonym of trust
This year, we have continued working hard to certify the materials of our seals by...
Do you know which specialised treatments apply to O-Rings?
Treatments that improve the performance of O-Rings
Sometimes standard elastomer O-Rings need to be treated with specialised surface treatments. By doing this, the equipment’s performance, assembly and installation is improved.
At JIOrings we can treat the O-Rings surface with specialised processes such as cleaning, chemical immersion or coating, with the aim of...
Rotary Shaft Seals, the best gaskets for high speed movement
They keep dirt, dust, water and other particles out, whilst retaining lubricant in the rotary shaft components
The rotary shaft seals, belonging to the rotating gasket family, are also known as oil seals. Their main function is to close spaces between stationary and mobile components in mechanical equipment. They are used to prevent the escape of lubricant and prevent...
Food-grade silicone plugs for quality wines
Pamper your wine barrels with our silicone plugs
The function of silicone plugs for barrels is as “simple” as sealing the barrel so that the process of wine making runs its course, without intervening in the process itself. Nortap® plugs, made of 100% food grade silicone, are the best option to achieve the perfect closure or fit with the mouth of any barrel. And...
Performance advantages of the X-Rings versus the O-Rings
X-Rings or Quad-Rings, the seals with the most support
The O-Ring, the simplest, most versatile and economical option on the market, is a circular seal that can be used in almost any application in any industry that requires a water-tightness guarantee. The X-Ring (also known as a Trefoil or Quadruple Gasket/Seal), with its four points of support exceeds the O-Ring in many...
Mixtures with specialised homolagations
Do you need seals with specialised homologations?
On more than one occasion we have commented on the importance of the choice of O-Ring seal. O-Rings are suitable for both dynamic and static applications but their success will depend on the properties of the gasket and the design of the housing.
The correct measurement, material, hardness, the temperature it will be...
Cord-ring spools, versatility and quality assured
Cord-ring spools, the best choice
What is a cord-ring?
Cord-ring is an extruded profile of calibrated circular section that is manufactured in the most common O-ring thicknesses. At JIOrings, we have cord-ring spools in stock ranging from 1 mm to 30 mm in bull rope diameter, in different lengths (spools of 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 metres). As if that were not enough, we...
2017 Annual summary
2017: giving the best of ourselves
F I G U R E S
It has been a good year and we have now had several such in a row. Each year, the objectives set company-wide by the Management team are more ambitious and it is, therefore, doubly satisfying when they are achieved. We have done this once again in 2017. This year we have grown, both in terms of stock and staff. We have broken...
JIOrings, a real asset
The importance of approvals
Day after day the O-rings have to meet more and more requirements in matters of environment and security. By the same token, public organizations impose more and more rigorous and restrictive requirements on materials or compounds that form the seals which are aimed to get in contact with water, gas, food products, chemistry products…

The back-up rings (BUR) and the O-Rings, the perfect tandem
Back-up rings + O-Rings = 100% compatible
Some time ago we spoke about the O-Rings and how good they were when a risk of extrusion from the housing could exist. The O-Rings create the seal effect pressing against the housing parts that hold it, but the capacity of the ensemble depends basically on these three factors: (1) the correct choice of the O-ring, (2) the surface...
