This o-ring is supplied in AS568-460 red Silicone 70 Shore A built to an inside diameter of 15.475 in (393.07 mm), a cross section of 0.275 in (6.99 mm), and an outside diameter of 16.025 in (407.04 mm), catalogued under part number S70MD460. It compresses into its gland to block fluid or gas migration across a joint.
Expect good resistance to extreme heat and cold, dry heat, and weathering. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is specified for very good compression set resistance across its range and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. The material carries a published service range of -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C). It is not the right choice where concentrated acids or abrasive dynamic service are present.
The compound is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. Common environments for this compound include medical devices, food and beverage processing, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
S70MD460 ships individually. Nominal inside diameter is listed as 15 1/2 inch. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation.
