Buna-N
This compound has excellent resistance to petroleum oils and gasoline and
has good resistance to hydrocarbons, acids and bases. Buna-N has a
temperature range of -40ºF to +250ºF and has excellent resistance to
compression set. Durometers available are 70 (standard) and 90. |
Silicone
Silicone "O" rings resist compression set and retain good elastomeric
properties at both low and high temperatures. They have a temperature range
of -100ºF to +500ºF. Silicone has good resistance to solvents, fuels and
many chemicals. Durometers available are 50 (standard) and 70. |
Viton®
Viton® "O" rings have excellent high temperature capability with
resistance to a wide range of acids, hydrocarbons and chemicals. Viton® is
one of the only synthetic rubber compounds that resists chemicals such as
Benzine, Toluene and Trichloroethylene to name a few. Durometers available
are 70 and 90. |
