Preformed packings are basically a type of O-ring providing effective sealing over wide ranges of pressure, temperature, and movement, with the advantage of sealing pressure in both directions and reducing friction and wear on moving parts. They are used to prevent leaks and improve aircraft performance. The packings are formed prior to shipping and they are supplied ready to use. Compared to form-in-place gaskets, they offer easy installation without sacrifising performance. Typically made of a slightly flexible material that can be compressed to create a better seal.

The selection of a specific O-ring is based on a variety of factors, including fluid media resistance, temperature range, hardness, durability, gland size, static or dynamic application, etc. 

An extensive selection of preformed packings to choose from can be supplied as part of OEM brands or sourced from quality manufacturers and offered as part of our own (AVIATIONEU NEW ERA) product lines. They are made from different materials such as Nitrile/Buna-N (NBR), Butadiene (Synthetic) Rubber (BR), Flurocarbon (Viton®) rubber  and others. Conform to various Military, Aeronautical & other Standards. They come in different  Metric or Imperial (inch) sizes (internal/outer diameters and thicknesses (cross-sections) , and hardnesses to suit application needs. 

For brief presentations of our offered packings please consult the Product Description Section or contact us for further information.

A fuel water detector can be used in jet fuel to detect the presence in jet fuels of finely dispersed water that is undetectable by the eye offering assurance to the user that the industry limits for water-free jet fuel are maintained.

Developed by SHELL®  to address aircraft operational issues associated with ice formation in aircraft fuel tanks, SHELL® Water Detector is an easy-to-use, reliable and simple industry-standard test method that verifies that jet fuel meets the demanding aviation standards for water content. Using a syringe fitted with a Shell Water Detector capsule (sold seperately), it only takes a matter of moments to check the fuel at any stage of your delivery system. 

SHELL® Water Detector capsules are offered in boxes containing 8 tubes of 10 capsules (80 capsules in total) or in single tubes of 10 capsules each. SHELL® Water Detectors have a useful life of four to six months.

SHELL® SYRB5 Water Detector 5ml Syringe is all nylon with record nozzle suitable for both manual and automatic sampling. It features a new type push plunger to draw fuel sample into the syringe.
