They are suitable for all commonly used elastomer grades and clearly reduce assembly forces, among other things.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, with standard connectors on automotive air conditioning systems, a reduction by 50% and more can be achieved compared to uncoated O-rings or O-rings with other coatings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clean separation, depositing and feeding in high-volume production is ensured by choosing a respective ParCoat coating as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u00a0Colour coding prevents mix-ups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Various coatings in coloured and transparent versions are available, depending on the application requirements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coloured versions serve to mark products and to avoid mix-ups.
