APG stocks the QH70177, an AS568-177 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A Quad-Ring with an inside diameter of 9.487 in (240.97 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 9.693 in (246.2 mm). A quad-ring resists spiral failure in reciprocating service thanks to its multi-lobe geometry.
As a material, Buna-N (Nitrile) is widely chosen for reliable performance in both static and dynamic service, the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer. Expect good resistance to many alcohols, propane and butane, and petroleum-based oils. The material carries a published service range of -40°F (-40°C) to 250°F (121.1°C). The profile itself contributes a parting line located away from the sealing surface and two sealing bands per contact face rather than one.
Common environments for this compound include construction equipment, fluid power, and automotive.
This item is sold individually under part number QH70177. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation. If you need a size, durometer or compound that is not listed, APG can cross-reference from a print, a sample or a competitor part number.
