.312" C/S (5/16") (8 MM)

Item 0282312 is an EPDM 70A O-Ring Cord built for custom O-ring fabrication, spliced seals, field repairs and nonstandard groove diameters. The item is specified by 0.312 inch (8 mm) cross section, with 5/16 inch nominal CS for cross-reference against common gland and replacement dimensions. The EPDM (EPR) compound is selected for water, steam, weathering and outdoor sealing applications where petroleum oil exposure is not the primary requirement. The black color and round profile provide a practical visual identifier during receiving, stocking and installation. As O-ring cord, it gives fabricators flexibility to cut and splice seals when a molded size is not practical or available. It is sold as cord stock, making it useful for fabricating custom O-rings or replacement seals in nonstandard diameters. Key selection details include material, hardness, product type, cross-section, inside diameter, outside diameter and application. These specification details help customers and resellers compare the part by performance requirements rather than brand name alone. Engineers, maintenance teams and purchasing groups can use the listed dimensions to verify fit before selecting the seal for a groove or assembly.
