This o-ring is supplied in AS568-038 red Silicone 70 Shore A supplied with an inside diameter of 2.614 in (66.4 mm), a cross section of 0.07 in (1.78 mm), and an outside diameter of 2.754 in (69.95 mm), catalogued under part number S70MD038. It provides a reliable static or dynamic seal by deforming into its gland under assembly load.
Expect good resistance to weathering, many oxidizing chemicals, and ozone and UV exposure. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is specified for physiological inertness and low toxicity, 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). Verify compatibility before use with hydrocarbon fuels and oils or abrasive dynamic service.
The compound is metal detectable for HACCP and foreign-body control programs. It sees regular use in food and beverage processing, sanitary process lines, and medical devices.
Reference part number S70MD038 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Nominal inside diameter is listed as 2 5/8 inch. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing.
