Ordered as E70172, this is an AS568-172 black EPDM (EPR) 70 Shore A O-Ring built to an inside diameter of 8.237 in (209.22 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 8.443 in (214.45 mm). The o-ring seats in a machined groove and forms a leak-tight barrier when compressed between two mating surfaces.
EPDM (EPR) offers outstanding weather, ozone and sunlight resistance, good electrical insulating characteristics. Expect good resistance to ozone, UV and weathering, phosphate ester hydraulic fluids, and dilute acids and alkalis. Published continuous service range is -65°F (-53.9°C) to 300°F (148.9°C). Exposure to aromatic hydrocarbons or petroleum oils and fuels will shorten service life.
You will find this material specified across potable water applications, brake and phosphate ester systems, and solar and roofing assemblies.
Reference part number E70172 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 4.1901 g. 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.
