The sinuses are air-filled cavities. 1  They are located: 2  Within the bony structure of the cheeks. 3  Behind the forehead and eyebrows. 4  On either side of the bridge of the nose. 5  Behind the nose directly in front of the brain.
An O-ring is a round ring that is used as a gasket for sealing a connection. O-rings are typically constructed out of polyurethane, silicone, neoprene, nitrile rubber or fluorocarbon. These rings are commonly used in mechanical applications, such as pipe connections, and help to ensure a tight seal between two objects. O-rings are designed to be seated in a groove or housing that keeps the ring in place. Once in its track, the ring is compressed between the two pieces and, in turn, creates a strong seal where they meet.
This can lead. to leaks caused by spiral failure of the O-ring. In general, tighter tolerance components or rigid. components with smooth or ground surface. finishes can use O-rings with the smallest cross-. sectional diameter regardless of the pressure.
