*568-271 METAL DETECTABLE FDA SILICONE

This Silicone 70A Metal-Detectable O-Ring, item S70MD271, is designed for buyers who need a clear specification match for food processing, packaging, washdown and detectable sealing applications where material selection is critical. The item is specified by AS568-271; 9.234 inch (234.54 mm) ID x 0.139 inch (3.53 mm) CS; 9.512 inch (241.6 mm) OD, with 9 1/4 inch nominal ID; 1/8 inch nominal CS for cross-reference against common gland and replacement dimensions. Its Silicone material provides flexibility across broad temperature swings and clean sealing applications that require a soft, compliant elastomer. It is with a listed temperature range of -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232°C), which can help narrow material selection for heat, cold or process exposure. The red color and round profile provide a practical visual identifier during receiving, stocking and installation. This category is commonly specified for processing environments, packaging equipment and washdown areas where seal identification matters. The each-unit format supports precise replacement, kitting, resale and job-specific purchasing. Its metal-detectable formulation supports detectable sealing applications where lost-part risk management is part of the specification. Common purchasing identifiers for this product include the material name, O-ring type, dimensional size, hardness and intended sealing application. Those attributes make the item easier to compare for maintenance, OEM production, MRO replacement and reseller catalog use.
