  O-ring
  From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  An O-ring, also known as a packing, or a toric joint, is a mechanical gasket in the shape of a torus; it is a loop of elastomer with a disc-shaped cross-section, designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, creating a seal at the interface.
  
  So to start designing the o-ring you have to know the parameters of the 2 other parts which your going to place the o-ring in between.

  First thing is whether you need O ring for static or dynamic application.
  Then only you can select O ring.
  Cross section can depend upon how big is gland and shaft dia.
