APG stocks the S70MD229, an AS568-229 red Silicone 70 Shore A O-Ring with an inside diameter of 2.359 in (59.92 mm), a cross section of 0.139 in (3.53 mm), and an outside diameter of 2.637 in (66.98 mm). An o-ring compresses into its gland to block fluid or gas migration across a joint.
Expect good resistance to dry heat, ozone and UV exposure, and extreme heat and cold. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is widely chosen for very good compression set resistance across its range 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. It should not be specified for service in steam above its rated range or abrasive dynamic service.
This o-ring 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.
This item is sold individually under part number S70MD229. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation. Not finding the exact configuration you need? APG cross-references from prints, samples and competitor part numbers.
