Ordered as SH70380, this is an AS568-380 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A Square-Cut Ring built to an inside diameter of 11.475 in (291.47 mm), a cross section of 0.21 in (5.33 mm), and an outside diameter of 11.895 in (302.13 mm). The square-cut ring offers greater contact area against the gland wall than an equivalent o-ring.
As a material, Buna-N (Nitrile) is known for the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer and an economical choice for high-volume maintenance programs. This material stands up to water, many alcohols, and propane and butane. Rated temperature range runs from -40°F (-40°C) to 250°F (121.1°C) in continuous service. It should not be specified for service in ozone and direct sunlight or ketones. The profile itself contributes a rectangular section that will not roll in the groove and greater resistance to extrusion than a round section of the same size. 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 hydraulic and pneumatic systems, agricultural equipment, and fluid power.
Stocked as SH70380 and sold individually. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing.
