SH70324 is an AS568-324 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A Square-Cut Ring built to an inside diameter of 1.35 in (34.29 mm), a cross section of 0.21 in (5.33 mm), and an outside diameter of 1.77 in (44.96 mm). In service, this square-cut ring offers greater contact area against the gland wall than an equivalent o-ring.
Buna-N (Nitrile) is valued for an economical choice for high-volume maintenance programs and low compression set under sustained load. Expect good resistance to propane and butane, petroleum-based oils, and water. Continuous operating temperature is published at -40°F (-40°C) to 250°F (121.1°C). Applications involving polar solvents or ozone and direct sunlight call for a different compound. The profile itself contributes greater resistance to extrusion than a round section of the same size and a flat contact band that spreads sealing load across a wider area. Note that a square section is less suited to high-speed rotary service, where the larger contact area raises friction and heat.
Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across general industrial maintenance, automotive, and agricultural equipment.
This item is sold individually under part number SH70324. Nominal inside diameter is listed as 1 3/8 inch. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation. If you need a size, durometer or compound that is not listed, APG can cross-reference from a print, a sample or a competitor part number.
