Buyers guide

It's good to make sure of the measurements of the product in the design phase in order to accomplish the best possible condensation.
It's good to take into account that soft material tolerances are wider compared to for example metallic parts.
Ask us for the tolerances of materials. Special tolerances may demand a longe production time. This also affects delivery times, production amounts and price.
The standard choices and thicknesses in use enable the maximal utilization of raw materials, which gives us the ability to reach a more cost-effective solution for the end product.
By choosing the thinner material, you usually achieve a better condensation and more cost-effective seal.
High fire protection in the raw material usually increases the price of the product unnecessarily.
Usually the seal itself is cheap product when you don't consider the starting and logistics expences. Check your order amount – the effect on storage value is usually very low
By standardizing the packaging size and order amounts you can achieve many benefits.
Regular deliviries for example once a week lower the management expences, which is good for the client as well as for the supplier.

Check, which standard size is right for your O ring.
If the O ring is manufactured with special sizes, it usually is a little more valuable, the delivery time is longer and the minimum order amount may increase.
Remember to check the real demands for the product. Often the product is "too good", which leads to higher expenses.
