This back-up ring is supplied in AS568-124 white PTFE (Teflon) 55 Shore D built to an inside diameter of 1.237 in (31.42 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 1.443 in (36.65 mm), catalogued under part number TST124. It extends o-ring service life by supporting the seal against extrusion under high pressure.
PTFE (Teflon) is widely chosen for a very wide continuous service temperature range and non-stick, non-contaminating surface characteristics. This material stands up to nearly all industrial chemicals, oxidizing media, and steam. The material carries a published service range of -65°F (-53.9°C) to 500°F (260°C). It should not be specified for service in elemental fluorine at temperature or service requiring elastic recovery.
Common environments for this compound include laboratory equipment, semiconductor fabrication, and chemical processing.
TST124 ships individually. Nominal inside diameter is listed as 1 1/4 inch. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing.
