APG stocks the VBU90122, an AS568-122 black Viton® (FKM) 90 Shore A Back-Up Ring supplied with an inside diameter of 1.112 in (28.24 mm), a cross section of 0.103 in (2.62 mm), and an outside diameter of 1.318 in (33.48 mm). A back-up ring allows a standard o-ring to operate at higher pressures than it could unsupported.
It resists aromatic hydrocarbons, aggressive chemicals, and engine and transmission fluids. That behavior comes from the compound itself: Viton® (FKM) delivers long service life in hot, chemically aggressive environments, excellent resistance to compression set and permeation. The material carries a published service range of -15°F (-26.1°C) to 400°F (204.4°C). Applications involving hot water and steam or amines call for a different compound.
Common environments for this compound include automotive fuel systems, oil and gas, and semiconductor equipment.
This item is sold individually under part number VBU90122. Unit weight is approximately 0.526 g. As always, verify media compatibility and operating conditions against the requirements of your specific application.
