The O-ring with code number K 27055 is a vital sealing element used in conjunction with ring K 27010 in the ZV40/48 engine. Its main function is to prevent fluid or air leakage at the joint interface, particularly where high-pressure fuel or oil systems operate. Crafted from elastomeric materials resistant to heat, oil, and pressure variations, the O-ring ensures a tight and secure seal even under dynamic engine conditions. Its role is crucial for maintaining system integrity and avoiding performance losses due to leaks or pressure drops.
