A bonded seal, also known as a sealing ring or bonded washer, is a type of sealing device commonly used in mechanical and plumbing applications to prevent leaks between two mating surfaces. It typically consists of a metal ring that is bonded to a rubber or elastomeric sealing element. The combination of metal and rubber allows the bonded seal to provide both structural strength and flexibility.
