This o-ring cord stock is supplied in red Silicone 70 Shore A measuring a cross section of 0.315 in (8 mm), catalogued under part number 0M286S8. It supports field repair of oversized or non-standard sealing grooves without a special tooling charge.
The compound resists weathering, many oxidizing chemicals, and extreme heat and cold. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is specified for excellent electrical insulating properties and flexibility that holds at very low temperatures. It should not be specified for service in steam above its rated range or concentrated acids.
Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across food and beverage processing, electronics and electrical enclosures, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Reference part number 0M286S8 when ordering; the item is sold by the foot. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. APG can cross-reference from an existing part number, a drawing or a physical sample if this size is not an exact match.
