     Tehro, thanks for your report. How about including
the rules for size of ring relative to surface to be sealed.
This is not only important, but will be vastly amusing when
certain manufacturers see they they have the wrong thickness 
of o-ring on a certain product. Let's see if they say YOU
don't know what you are talking about.
     Also, tough guy, lubricating o-rings in certain 
applications causes dirt to accumulate - I prefer to 
not lubricate, and just throw them away when they show 
signs of wear, rather than risk a leak from the dirt.
      Thanks, George
