It creates a positive seal at flange, piston and rod interfaces without added hardware.
This material stands up to weathering, extreme heat and cold, and many oxidizing chemicals. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Silicone is known for excellent electrical insulating properties and an exceptionally wide service temperature range. Service temperature is rated from -80°F (-62.2°C) through 450°F (232.2°C). Verify compatibility before use with abrasive dynamic service or steam above its rated range.
This o-ring meets FDA requirements for food contact. Common environments for this compound include electronics and electrical enclosures, medical devices, and ovens and heated equipment.
Order part number S3X6, sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.282 g. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application.
