Basically
an o ring is used to block a pathway that fluid or air may escape
through. O rings are usually put into a groove to hold them in place
and then squeezed between two surfaces. When an O ring is squeezed
between two surfaces it shall be taking up the clearance and blocking
the pathway that the fluid or air wants to escape through. After an O
ring is applied by squeezing, the rubber once again takes up its
original shape. This is how the O rings seal under very low or no
pressure. When pressure is applied to the system this also helps the
O ring seal by pushing the O ring against the groove wall opposite
the direction of the pressure and forcing it expand perpendicular to
the direction it is being squeezed by the pressure.
