This is part of a closing system for aquaculture equipment. The dictionary gives the translation of torica as toric, but what does that mean??

O-ring seal

Es un anillo sellador. También puedes usar "gasket" en vez de "seal". Saludos.
Peer comment(s):

agree David Brown : this is a more correct definition, an o-ring can be just a spacer and not seal. Also technically it is a"toroidal" seal.

toric gasket

Las juntas tóricas o toroidales son unos elementos que aseguran la estanqueidad entre dos cuerpos.
Una junta tórica es un anillo de un material elástico que tiene forma de "toro" (cuerpo geométrico) Algunas tóricas pueden tener forma distinta al anillo, pero su sección siempre es circular. Por ejemplo, las juntas que cierran las cámaras fotográficas tienen la forma de la tapa, pero si las cortáramos veríamos que su sección es circular.
