X-rings are four-lobed sealing profiles used where a different contact geometry may help improve sealing stability, lubricant retention, or dynamic behavior compared with a standard O-ring in suitable applications.
Unlike a round O-ring profile, an X-ring has a four-lobed cross section. This can provide multiple sealing lines and can help reduce twisting or rolling in selected dynamic applications.
X-rings are usually selected when the application needs more than a basic round-section seal, especially in systems where stability and friction behavior matter.
