ZTAM-00243: O-RING

Technical Specifications - Alternative Part Numbers and Compatible Models are not specified in the provided data. General Characteristics - Material: Elastomeric materials such as nitrile rubber, silicone, fluorocarbon (Viton), and PTFE are commonly used depending on the application environment. - Shape: Circular cross-section forming a toroidal structure. - Hardness Range: Shore A durometer from 10 to 90 to accommodate various compression needs. - Standards Compliance: Conforms to AS568 (inch sizes), ISO 3601 (metric sizes), and other regional standards like BS sizes in the UK. Applications - Static Applications: Used for fluid or gas sealing in stationary systems, axial or radial seals for housings and grooves. - Dynamic Applications: Sealing in systems with relative motion, such as hydraulic cylinder pistons and rotating shafts. Key Features - Versatility: Effective for high-pressure and low-pressure environments (up to 5,000 psi). - Durability: Resistant to wear, chemical degradation, and extreme temperatures based on the material used. - Ease of Use: Simple installation with predictable deformation for reliable sealing. - Customizability: Available in standard and non-standard sizes, including proprietary technologies like MicrOrings® for extremely small dimensions (<0.036 inches). Additional Information - Design Considerations: Proper groove dimensions and surface roughness are critical for optimal performance. - Failure Modes: Common issues include extrusion under high pressure and abrasion in dynamic applications. Proper material selection helps mitigate these risks. Please note that this summary provides a comprehensive overview of O-ring specifications and applications. For precise compatibility or equivalent part recommendations, specific dimensions and operational conditions should be considered.
