The E3X10 is a black EPDM (EPR) 70 Shore A O-Ring supplied with an inside diameter of 10 mm (0.394 in), a cross section of 3 mm (0.118 in), and an outside diameter of 16 mm (0.63 in). This o-ring seats in a machined groove and forms a leak-tight barrier when compressed between two mating surfaces.
EPDM (EPR) is specified here for strong performance in outdoor and exposed installations, excellent hot water and steam resistance. The compound resists dilute acids and alkalis, water and steam, and ozone, UV and weathering. Service temperature is rated from -65°F (-53.9°C) through 300°F (148.9°C). It is not the right choice where mineral oil-based lubricants or petroleum oils and fuels are present.
Typical settings include water and steam systems, outdoor equipment, and brake and phosphate ester systems.
This item is sold individually under part number E3X10. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
