Ordered as S70FDA262, this is an AS568-262 red Silicone 70 Shore A O-Ring built to an inside diameter of 6.984 in (177.39 mm), a cross section of 0.139 in (3.53 mm), and an outside diameter of 7.262 in (184.45 mm). The o-ring provides a reliable static or dynamic seal by deforming into its gland under assembly load.
The material holds up against dry heat, many oxidizing chemicals, and weathering. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is known for flexibility that holds at very low temperatures and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. Published continuous service range is -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C). It should not be specified for service in concentrated acids or abrasive dynamic service.
The compound meets FDA requirements for food contact, is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. It sees regular use in sanitary process lines, food and beverage processing, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Stocked as S70FDA262 and sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 7.71 g. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation.
