Part number QH70042 is an AS568-042 black Buna-N (Nitrile) 70 Shore A quad profile Quad-Ring built to an inside diameter of 3.239 in (82.27 mm), a cross section of 0.07 in (1.78 mm), and an outside diameter of 3.379 in (85.83 mm). A quad-ring uses a four-lobed profile to create two sealing surfaces per side, reducing the squeeze needed to seal.
The material holds up against water, propane and butane, and petroleum-based oils. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Buna-N (Nitrile) is widely chosen for strong abrasion and tear resistance, an economical choice for high-volume maintenance programs. Service temperature is rated from -40°F (-40°C) through 250°F (121.1°C). It is not the right choice where automotive brake fluid or ketones are present.
You will find this material specified across general industrial maintenance, automotive, and fluid power.
Order part number QH70042, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.8474 g and nominal inside diameter is listed as 3 1/4 inch. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
