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 low to 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.

O-rings are commonly made of rubber but they can also be made with plastic or metal. Several different type of rubber compounds exist on the market today because of the different temperatures, chemical exposures and environments that O-rings are subjected too.
