O-rings are simple components, but their long-term sealing performance depends on getting the details right.

One common cause of leakage is compression set, when an O-ring loses its ability to recover its original shape after prolonged compression. The result? Reduced sealing force and, ultimately, potential leakage.

In this article, we look at what causes compression set, how factors such as temperature, material, hardness and squeeze affect it, and what to consider when selecting an O-ring for long-term reliability.

A first look inside our new HQ.

We thought we would share a few shots of our new headquarters at Proxima Park before the interior fit-out begins.

There is a lot to happen between now and moving day, including the installation of a Kardex VBM and a lot of shiny new racking.

Once complete, our new HQ will give us significantly more space to hold stock, better infrastructure and plenty of room to grow, all helping us provide an even better service to our customers.

Follow us over the coming months to see our new home take shape.

We are moving!

Later this autumn, Polymax will be moving into a new purpose-built headquarters at Proxima Park in Waterlooville.

From our beginnings in Bordon more than 20 years ago, this move marks an exciting new chapter, and is the biggest investment we have made in our business.

Our new headquarters will deliver:

44,681 sq ft warehouse for increased stockholding and future growth
Warehouse automation for greater efficiency and faster order fulfilment
Top-spec modern office space for our team and visitors
BREEAM Outstanding and EPC A+ rated building

A special thank you to Adrian Whitfield and the team at Realest for helping us secure the ideal platform for our next stage of growth.

We will be sharing updates as the move progresses, so follow our page to join us on the journey.

We can’t wait to welcome our customers, suppliers and partners to our new home later this year!

O-rings may be small, but they play a big role in keeping operations safe and running smoothly.

In oil & gas, offshore and subsea applications, seals can face extreme pressure, temperature fluctuations, hydrocarbons, H₂S and rapid gas decompression.

So how do you know an O-ring is actually suitable for the application?

Our latest article breaks down the key standards and considerations, including NORSOK M-710 & M-711, NACE, AED/RGD and material selection.

New investment, better results for our customers.

We have expanded our precision manufacturing capabilities with the addition of a new CNC Rubber Tube Cutting Machine, enabling us to produce flat washers, square rings and custom rubber sealing components with even greater accuracy and efficiency.

The benefits include:

Improved dimensional consistency (up to ±0.05 mm)
Superior edge quality with virtually flash-free components
Faster turnaround for high-volume orders
Reduced waste and improved sealing performance
More cost-effective production compared with conventional moulding methods

The new technology supports a wide range of elastomers, including EPDM, NBR and NR, making it ideal for demanding applications across automotive, industrial, construction and infrastructure sectors.

Find out how this latest investment helps us deliver higher quality, greater repeatability and better value for our customers.
