-218 RED SILICONE 70D FDA O-RING

Part number S70FDA218 is an AS568-218 red Silicone 70 Shore A O-Ring supplied with an inside diameter of 1.234 in (31.34 mm), a cross section of 0.139 in (3.53 mm), and an outside diameter of 1.512 in (38.4 mm). An o-ring compresses into its gland to block fluid or gas migration across a joint.

The material holds up against many oxidizing chemicals, dry heat, and weathering. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone delivers excellent electrical insulating properties and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. Rated temperature range runs from -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C) in continuous service. Exposure to concentrated acids 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. Common environments for this compound include electronics and electrical enclosures, ovens and heated equipment, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
