Generally:
X-ring beats O-ring.
W-ring beats X-ring.
WX-ring beats X-ring and W-ring.
Z-ring falls somewhere between X-ring and W-ring.
All of these letters simple vaguely describe the shape of the oil-ring seals; the advanced shapes tend to flex more without giving out, so they tend to last longer as long as they are cleaned appropriately.
