3MM CS X 12MM ID RED SILICONE 70D

The SFDA3X12 is a red Silicone 70 Shore A O-Ring supplied with an inside diameter of 12 mm (0.472 in), a cross section of 3 mm (0.118 in), and an outside diameter of 18 mm (0.71 in). This o-ring seats in a machined groove and forms a leak-tight barrier when compressed between two mating surfaces. Source specification: FDA Compliant TO 21CFR Sec 177-2600, Metric O-RING.

This material stands up to weathering, ozone and UV exposure, and dry heat. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone delivers an exceptionally wide service temperature range and flexibility that holds at very low temperatures. Continuous operating temperature is published at -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C). Exposure to hydrocarbon fuels and oils or abrasive dynamic service will shorten service life.

This item meets FDA requirements for food contact, is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. You will find this material specified across ovens and heated equipment, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and sanitary process lines.

This item is sold individually under part number SFDA3X12. Unit weight is approximately 0.0064 g. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation. If you need a size, durometer or compound that is not listed, APG can cross-reference from a print, a sample or a competitor part number.
