Grommets
Grommets can be either single-piece or two-pieced, and are typically hand-inserted. Grommets
usually serve to:
- strengthen and protect openings
- insulate and protect objects passing through openings , where a vulnerable material
such as wire could be cut or abraded
- relieve strain, as with power supply cords, to prevent stressing the connections
Grommets are available in a wide variety of:
- Sizes -- round, oval, oblong, square or rectangular
- Materials -- including elastomeric, plastic, or coated metal
Washers
Flattened discs or gaskets inserted between joints, under fasteners or bearings are used to prevent leakage or loosening, relieve
friction, distribute pressure, or isolate materials.

O-Ring Drive Belts
O-ring belts evolved from flat belts used in early power transmission systems, which wore unevenly and
slipped.
Designed as a circular cross section belt, these specialized O-rings operate in a pulley with a groove
in low-torque situations.
Especially useful in 3-D applications, round belts come in various forms:
- with solid or hollow cores
- in many standard sizes
- non-standard lengths can be spliced to your size requirements
Compression Seals
These solid elastomeric rings are static seals in various cross-section configuations, including:
- D-Rings
- Delta rings
- Diamond-shaped rings
- H-Rings
- Heart rings
- Metal seals
- Rectangular rings
- T-section rings
- Tetraseals
- Trapezoid rings
- X or multiple rings
