This back-up ring is supplied in AS568-010 black Viton® (FKM) 90 Shore A built to an inside diameter of 0.239 in (6.07 mm), a cross section of 0.07 in (1.78 mm), and an outside diameter of 0.379 in (9.63 mm), catalogued under part number VBU90010. It bridges the extrusion gap so the primary seal holds its shape under load.
Viton® (FKM) is specified here for very low compression set at elevated temperature and long service life in hot, chemically aggressive environments. Expect good resistance to engine and transmission fluids, aromatic hydrocarbons, and chlorinated solvents. Continuous operating temperature is published at -15°F (-26.1°C) to 400°F (204.4°C). Applications involving low-molecular-weight organic acids or ketones and esters call for a different compound.
You will find this material specified across automotive fuel systems, high-temperature process equipment, and aerospace.
Stocked as VBU90010 and sold individually. Unit weight is approximately 0.0855 g. Application requirements vary, so validate compatibility with your process conditions prior to installation. APG supports cross-referencing from drawings, samples and competitor numbers when a listed size is not an exact fit.
