This back-up ring is supplied in AS568-122 white PTFE (Teflon) 55 Shore D with an inside diameter of 1.112 in (28.24 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 1.318 in (33.48 mm), catalogued under part number TST122SO. It installs on the low-pressure side of an o-ring to prevent extrusion into the clearance gap at elevated pressure.
As a material, PTFE (Teflon) delivers one of the lowest coefficients of friction of any solid and non-stick, non-contaminating surface characteristics. It resists solvents, strong acids and bases, and oxidizing media. The material carries a published service range of -65°F (-53.9°C) to 500°F (260°C).
Typical settings include pharmaceutical and biotech, aggressive-media pipelines, and chemical processing.
TST122SO ships individually. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation.
