TST469 is an AS568-469 white PTFE (Teflon) 55 Shore D Back-Up Ring measuring an inside diameter of 19.955 in (506.86 mm), a cross section of 0.275 in (6.99 mm), and an outside diameter of 20.505 in (520.83 mm). In service, this back-up ring extends o-ring service life by supporting the seal against extrusion under high pressure.
PTFE (Teflon) is specified here for non-stick, non-contaminating surface characteristics and very wide continuous service temperature range. The compound resists nearly all industrial chemicals, solvents, and steam. Continuous operating temperature is published at -65°F (-53.9°C) to 500°F (260°C). It should not be specified for service in molten alkali metals or elemental fluorine at temperature.
Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across laboratory equipment, aggressive-media pipelines, and pharmaceutical and biotech.
Stocked as TST469 and sold individually. Nominal inside diameter is listed as 20 inch. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. Not finding the exact configuration you need?
