Part number HB90163 is an AS568-163 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 90 Shore A Back-Up Ring measuring an inside diameter of 5.987 in (152.07 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 6.193 in (157.3 mm). A back-up ring extends o-ring service life by supporting the seal against extrusion under high pressure.
This material stands up to greases and lubricants, water, and many alcohols. Buna-N (Nitrile) is valued for strong abrasion and tear resistance, an economical choice for high-volume maintenance programs. Service temperature is rated from -40°F (-40°C) through 250°F (121.1°C). Exposure to polar solvents or ketones will shorten service life.
You will find this material specified across general industrial maintenance, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and automotive.
