8-173 FLUOROELASTOMER 90 B/U RING

Use item VBU90173 when a FKM Viton 90A Backup Ring is required for anti-extrusion support behind O-rings in high-pressure hydraulic and pneumatic glands. The item is specified by AS568-173; 8.487 inch (215.57 mm) ID x 0.103 inch (2.62 mm) CS; 8.693 inch (220.8 mm) OD, with 8 1/2 inch nominal ID; 3/32 inch nominal CS for cross-reference against common gland and replacement dimensions. The FKM/Viton fluoroelastomer construction supports high-temperature service, fuels, lubricants and many chemical sealing environments. It is with a listed temperature range of -15°F (-26°C) to 400°F (204°C), which can help narrow material selection for heat, cold or process exposure. The black color and round profile provide a practical visual identifier during receiving, stocking and installation. As a backup ring, it works with a primary O-ring to help limit extrusion into clearance gaps under pressure. The each-unit format supports precise replacement, kitting, resale and job-specific purchasing. Important product identifiers include O-rings, replacement seals, fluid sealing, material compatibility and dimensional fit. It supports customer comparison, distributor cataloging and specification-based selection without relying on pricing, availability or shipping claims.
