APG stocks the SV70395, an AS568-395 black Viton® (FKM) 70 Shore A Square-Cut Ring supplied with an inside diameter of 25.94 in (658.88 mm), a cross section of 0.21 in (5.33 mm), and an outside diameter of 26.36 in (669.54 mm). A square-cut ring resists the spiral failure that affects round rings on long reciprocating strokes.
As a material, Viton® (FKM) is known for long service life in hot, chemically aggressive environments and outstanding high-temperature capability. Expect good resistance to chlorinated solvents, many acids, and aromatic hydrocarbons. Rated temperature range runs from -15°F (-26.1°C) to 400°F (204.4°C) in continuous service. The profile itself contributes simple lathe-cut manufacture at low tooling cost 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.
Common environments for this compound include aerospace, chemical processing, and oil and gas.
This item is sold individually under part number SV70395. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
