SH70238 is an AS568-238 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A Square-Cut Ring built to an inside diameter of 3.484 in (88.49 mm), a cross section of 0.139 in (3.53 mm), and an outside diameter of 3.762 in (95.55 mm). In service, this square-cut ring presents a flat rectangular section that cannot roll or twist in its groove, making it a dependable static seal.
The material holds up against hydraulic fluids, propane and butane, and water. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Buna-N (Nitrile) offers reliable performance in both static and dynamic service, the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer. Service temperature is rated from -40°F (-40°C) through 250°F (121.1°C). Verify compatibility before use with ozone and direct sunlight or strong acids. The profile itself contributes a rectangular section that will not roll in the groove 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 construction equipment, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and agricultural equipment.
SH70238 ships individually. Unit weight is approximately 4.161 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.
