Ordered as S3X45, this is a red Silicone 70 Shore A O-Ring with an inside diameter of 45 mm (1.772 in), a cross section of 3 mm (0.118 in), and an outside diameter of 51 mm (2.01 in). The o-ring compresses into its gland to block fluid or gas migration across a joint.
It resists weathering, extreme heat and cold, and many oxidizing chemicals. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone delivers very good compression set resistance across its range and excellent electrical insulating properties. Published continuous service range is -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C). It is not the right choice where abrasive dynamic service or concentrated acids are present.
The compound meets FDA requirements for food contact. Typical settings include ovens and heated equipment, sanitary process lines, and electronics and electrical enclosures.
Reference part number S3X45 when ordering; the item is sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 1.4725 g. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation.
