Design a static O-ring gland — squeeze, gland fill, installation stretch, seal force, and extrusion-gap screening for radial and face seals
No squeeze — gland depth ≥ cross-section
The gland depth equals or exceeds the O-ring free cross-section, so the ring is not compressed at all. There is no sealing interference. Reduce the gland depth (or choose a larger cross-section) so squeeze lands in the recommended range.
