This o-ring is supplied in AS568-146 blue Viton® (FKM) 75 Shore A with an inside diameter of 2.612 in (66.34 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 2.818 in (71.58 mm), catalogued under part number V75MD146. It compresses into its gland to block fluid or gas migration across a joint.
As a material, Viton® (FKM) is widely chosen for long service life in hot, chemically aggressive environments and the industry benchmark where nitrile reaches its thermal limit. Expect good resistance to petroleum oils and fuels, many acids, and engine and transmission fluids. Service temperature is rated from -15°F (-26.1°C) through 400°F (204.4°C). Applications involving amines or hot water and steam call for a different compound.
This item meets FDA requirements for food contact, carries NSF listing, and is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. It sees regular use in high-temperature process equipment, aerospace, and semiconductor equipment.
Reference part number V75MD146 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Check the compound against your process media, pressure and temperature before committing to a design.
