Back-up rings provide protection and additional resistance in sealing applications and prevent extrusion failure in O-rings and seal damage when subjected to high pressures, larger extrusion gaps and/or high temperatures.
The direction of pressure in the sealing application dictates whether 1 back-up ring or 2 back-up rings are used.
They are normally recommended for applications where:
