-006 RED SILICONE 70D FDA O-RING

This o-ring is supplied in AS568-006 red Silicone 70 Shore A measuring an inside diameter of 0.114 in (2.9 mm), a cross section of 0.07 in (1.78 mm), and an outside diameter of 0.254 in (6.45 mm), catalogued under part number S70FDA006. It remains the most cost-effective sealing element available for pressurized assemblies.

The material holds up against weathering, extreme heat and cold, and dry heat. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is valued for very good compression set resistance across its range and excellent electrical insulating properties. Service temperature is rated from -80°F (-62.2°C) through 450°F (232.2°C). It is not the right choice where steam above its rated range or abrasive dynamic service are present.

This o-ring meets FDA requirements for food contact under 21 CFR 177.2600. You will find this material specified across medical devices, sanitary process lines, and food and beverage processing.

Reference part number S70FDA006 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.0515 g and nominal inside diameter is listed as 1/8 inch. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
