This square-cut ring is supplied in AS568-331 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A supplied with an inside diameter of 2.225 in (56.52 mm), a cross section of 0.21 in (5.33 mm), and an outside diameter of 2.645 in (67.18 mm), catalogued under part number SH70331. It presents a flat rectangular section that cannot roll or twist in its groove, making it a dependable static seal.
As a material, Buna-N (Nitrile) is widely chosen for an economical choice for high-volume maintenance programs, strong abrasion and tear resistance. It resists propane and butane, hydraulic fluids, and greases and lubricants. Continuous operating temperature is published at -40°F (-40°C) to 250°F (121.1°C). It should not be specified for service in automotive brake fluid or ozone and direct sunlight. The profile itself contributes greater resistance to extrusion than a round section of the same size and a flat contact band that spreads sealing load across a wider area. Note that a square section is less suited to high-speed rotary service, where the larger contact area raises friction and heat.
Typical settings include agricultural equipment, automotive, and construction equipment.
This item is sold individually under part number SH70331. Unit weight is approximately 6.2568 g and nominal inside diameter is listed as 2 1/4 inch.
