Hi, I want to cut a couple of grooves on a shaft (using my lathe) to accept sealing O rings.
How would I size the grooves relative to the o rings thickness?
Additionally should the groove bottom be square edged or radiused to match the rings cross section?
Any thoughts gratefully accepted.
Thanks in anticipation.
