The H6X38 is a black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A O-Ring built to an inside diameter of 38 mm (1.496 in), a cross section of 6 mm (0.236 in), and an outside diameter of 50 mm (1.97 in). This o-ring seats in a machined groove and forms a leak-tight barrier when compressed between two mating surfaces.
Buna-N (Nitrile) offers low compression set under sustained load and the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer. Expect good resistance to water, propane and butane, and greases and lubricants. Service temperature is rated from -40°F (-40°C) through 250°F (121.1°C). Exposure to ozone and direct sunlight or ketones will shorten service life.
Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across fluid power, automotive, and construction equipment.
