| Astra Seal(¿ ) |
Extreme low temperatures make most O-Rings brittle which in turn leads to failure. The Astra seal was created by Aerospace Engineer to combat the harch environments associated with liquid oxygen and the problems involved with sealing in other cold media, such as liquid nitrogen and hydrogen.
Since then the seals have been successfully used in several space shuttle/ rocket launches and a multitude of other applications by organizations such as Boeing, NASA, Lockheed, and the newly founded Space X. |
