APG stocks the S1.5X18, a red Silicone 70 Shore A O-Ring with an inside diameter of 18 mm (0.709 in), a cross section of 1.5 mm (0.059 in), and an outside diameter of 21 mm (0.83 in). An o-ring creates a positive seal at flange, piston and rod interfaces without added hardware.
As a material, Silicone is specified for very good compression set resistance across its range and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. The material holds up against weathering, ozone and UV exposure, and many oxidizing chemicals. Published continuous service range is -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C). It is not the right choice where hydrocarbon fuels and oils or steam above its rated range are present.
The compound meets FDA requirements for food contact. Maintenance and OEM teams specify it across pharmaceutical manufacturing, ovens and heated equipment, and medical devices.
S1.5X18 ships individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.142 g. Review your operating media and conditions against this specification before installation.
