This o-ring is supplied in red Silicone 70 Shore A with an inside diameter of 6 mm (0.236 in), a cross section of 1.5 mm (0.059 in), and an outside diameter of 9 mm (0.35 in), catalogued under part number S1.5X6. It provides a reliable static or dynamic seal by deforming into its gland under assembly load.
This material stands up to weathering, ozone and UV exposure, and dry heat. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is widely chosen for flexibility that holds at very low temperatures and excellent electrical insulating properties. Rated temperature range runs from -80°F (-62.2°C) to 450°F (232.2°C) in continuous service. It is not the right choice where abrasive dynamic service or hydrocarbon fuels and oils are present.
This item meets FDA requirements for food contact. It sees regular use in pharmaceutical manufacturing, sanitary process lines, and food and beverage processing.
Stocked as S1.5X6 and sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.0566 g. Confirm chemical compatibility, pressure and temperature against your own application requirements before installing. For a size or compound outside the standard catalog, APG can quote from a print or sample.
