Expect good resistance to petroleum-based oils, propane and butane, and many alcohols. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Buna-N (Nitrile) is known for low compression set under sustained load and the most widely specified general-purpose sealing elastomer. Published continuous service range is -40°F (-40°C) to 250°F (121.1°C). It should not be specified for service in automotive brake fluid or ketones.

Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across fluid power, hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and automotive.

Order part number QH70342, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 8.756 g. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application.
