This back-up ring is supplied in AS568-024 black Viton® (FKM) 90 Shore A built to an inside diameter of 1.114 in (28.3 mm), a cross section of 0.07 in (1.78 mm), and an outside diameter of 1.254 in (31.85 mm), catalogued under part number VBU90024. It extends o-ring service life by supporting the seal against extrusion under high pressure.
Expect good resistance to aggressive chemicals, petroleum oils and fuels, and many acids. Viton® (FKM) is known for excellent resistance to compression set and permeation, the industry benchmark where nitrile reaches its thermal limit. Continuous operating temperature is published at -15°F (-26.1°C) to 400°F (204.4°C). Exposure to hot water and steam or amines will shorten service life.
Typical settings include semiconductor equipment, automotive fuel systems, and aerospace.
Stocked as VBU90024 and sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.3216 g and nominal inside diameter is listed as 1 1/8 inch. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
