Dash Number 158 O-Rings | McMaster-Carr

Made of Buna-N, these O-rings resist grease, hydraulic oil, and motor oil—plus mild chemicals and water. However, Buna-N is not for use with brake fluid. These O-rings are commonly used to create multidirectional seals between two parts in power transmission assemblies, hydraulic cylinders, and pneumatic cylinders. They resist compression and tearing to keep their shape over time. All have shelf life, a cure date, and a traceable lot number printed on the package.

Square-Profile Oil-Resistant Buna-N O-Rings

With flat edges on all four sides, these O-rings make contact with a larger surface area than round-profile O-rings. The increased contact creates a better seal in static applications, such as hose, pipe, and faucet connections. However, these O-rings aren’t as good of a choice in dynamic applications, where the flat edges cause higher friction that leads to increased wear. Made from Buna-N, they resist tearing and stand up to hydraulic and motor oils.

Ultra-Chemical-Resistant FEP-Encapsulated Viton® Fluoroelastomer O-Rings

An FEP casing protects these O-rings from moisture and harsh solvents such as acetone, methanol, and boric acid. If the casing wears away, the Viton® fluoroelastomer core will continue to ward off chemicals. These O-rings are more flexible than PTFE O-rings and resist chemicals better than standard Viton® O-rings. They’re often used as seals in centrifugal pumps and gas venting valves. All come with shelf life, a cure date, and a traceable lot number on the bag.

Image of Attribute. Front orientation. CrossSection view. Contains Annotated. Oil-Resistant Buna-N Backup Rings.

Extend the life of O-rings in oily, high-pressure systems that operate at up to 2,500 psi. These backup rings support O-rings and prevent them from deforming under pressure and causing pressure loss. Made of Buna-N, these rings won’t swell when exposed to grease, petroleum fluids, and motor oil. However, they will degrade when exposed to mild or harsh chemicals. They’re often used in hydraulic, automotive, and industrial systems. All have a shelf life, cure date, and a traceable lot number printed on the bag.

High-Pressure Ultra-Chemical-Resistant PTFE Backup Rings


O-Ring Deforms Without a Backup Ring	O-Ring Sealing Properly with Backup Ring

Protect O-rings in equipment operating at pressures up to 4,300 psi. These backup rings support O-rings to extend their life and prevent them from deforming under pressure, which can cause pressure loss. Made of PTFE, they’re rigid enough to hold their shape under load, yet slippery enough to reduce friction in moving parts. They also resist a wide range of chemicals. Often used in pipeline valves and chemical processing equipment, they have a split ring design to simplify installation. All have a shelf life, cure date, and a traceable lot number printed on the bag.
