Minnesota Rubber’s Quad-Rings are now available in Canada from Daemar

Quad-Rings are recommended for static, reciprocating, and oscillating sealing tasks.

Daemar Inc. is Canada’s leading distributor of essential components for industry, with an inventory that continues to expand to meet evolving demand. One manufacturer with whom Daemar partners, Trelleborg, recently acquired Minnesota Rubber – a renowned producer of precision-engineered rubber and plastic components. This means Daemar now carries Minnesota Rubber’s Quad-Rings.

Well-reputed as the ideal solution for complicated applications in which high performance is important, Quad-Rings are Minnesota Rubber’s flagship product.

Static, reciprocating, or oscillating sealing

A worldwide leader in engineered polymer solutions, Trelleborg is the perfect organization for manufacturing Quad-Rings, which come highly recommended for static, reciprocating, and oscillating sealing tasks. The proprietary geometry offers a dependable, engineer-approved product for critical applications. Daemar already has a reputation for supplying high-quality products, and its technical team can guide customers to find the appropriate seals for their specific requirements.

The original Quad-Ring Brand seal is a four-lobed seal developed to prevent spiral twists and withstand distortion and extrusion. For years, the industry has positioned Quad-Rings as the seals to use when other models are insufficient, as their failure rate is much lower than that of X-rings and other competing components. Other advantages of these seals include longer lifespan, lower friction, and elimination of leaks with sealing surfaces placed strategically away from parting lines.

Businesses often used Quad-Rings as a substitute for O-rings, and also as an alternative solution for dynamic seals in low-pressure applications. Daemar recommends them for customers who are more risk-averse, while O-rings are still useful for their value in tasks for which they work. Another key benefit of Quad Brand seals: they eliminate supply-chain challenges, since they are engineered in the United States and manufactured globally.

In reciprocating applications, Quad-Rings form a positive, reliable seal at a broad range of pressures – from extreme vacuum up to 725 pounds per square inch (psi) without backup rings, or up to 4,350 psi with backup rings. They make excellent rotary seals due to their low cross-sectional squeeze, which allows higher rotary speeds with less friction. When used as gaskets in static tasks, Quad-Rings efficiently seal mating components.
