APG stocks the SH70151, an AS568-151 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A Square-Cut Ring built to an inside diameter of 2.987 in (75.87 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 3.193 in (81.1 mm). A square-cut ring seals with a broad flat contact band instead of the line contact of a round-section ring.
This material stands up to hydraulic fluids, water, and many alcohols. Buna-N (Nitrile) is widely chosen for the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer, reliable performance in both static and dynamic service. The material carries a published service range of -40°F (-40°C) to 250°F (121.1°C). The profile itself contributes simple lathe-cut manufacture at low tooling cost and greater resistance to extrusion than a round section of the same size. 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 hydraulic and pneumatic systems, agricultural equipment, and construction equipment.
Order part number SH70151, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 1.9341 g. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design. APG supports cross-referencing from drawings, samples and competitor numbers when a listed size is not an exact fit.
