FVB-0018-A is a Buna-N (Nitrile) Type A V-Ring Seal built to a nominal shaft size of 18A. In service, this v-ring seal stretches onto a shaft and seals axially against a counterface, shedding contamination by centrifugal action.
This material stands up to many alcohols, propane and butane, and water. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Buna-N (Nitrile) is specified for the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer, reliable performance in both static and dynamic service. Exposure to polar solvents or strong acids will shorten service life.
Common environments for this compound include general industrial maintenance, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and fluid power.
This item is sold individually under part number FVB-0018-A. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
