Ordered as VQ4162, this is an AS568-162 black Viton® (FKM) 75 Shore A quad profile Quad-Ring built to an inside diameter of 5.737 in (145.72 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 5.943 in (150.95 mm). The quad-ring uses a four-lobed profile to create two sealing surfaces per side, reducing the squeeze needed to seal.
The compound resists aromatic hydrocarbons, many acids, and aggressive chemicals. Viton® (FKM) is known for long service life in hot, chemically aggressive environments and 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). Verify compatibility before use with low-molecular-weight organic acids or amines.
Common environments for this compound include aerospace, high-temperature process equipment, and semiconductor equipment.
VQ4162 ships individually. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design. APG supports cross-referencing from drawings, samples and competitor numbers when a listed size is not an exact fit.
