Part number 0294500 is a red Silicone 60 Shore A square profile O-Ring Cord Stock built to a cross section of 0.5 in (12.7 mm). An o-ring cord stock lets you fabricate a custom-size seal on site by cutting and splicing to the required circumference.
As a material, Silicone is widely chosen for flexibility that holds at very low temperatures and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. The compound resists weathering, many oxidizing chemicals, and dry heat. Exposure to hydrocarbon fuels and oils or steam above its rated range will shorten service life.
You will find this material specified across pharmaceutical manufacturing, food and beverage processing, and sanitary process lines.
Reference part number 0294500 when ordering; the item is sold by the foot. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
