Dash Number 283 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.

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.

Water- and Steam-Resistant Parker E0603 EPDM O-Rings

Trusted for their quality and consistency, these E0603 EPDM O-rings resist water, steam, and glycol-based fluids, including brake fluid. They’re often used to seal plumbing and refrigeration systems, since they won’t swell or break down in moist environments. All have a cure date and traceable lot number printed on the bag.

Low-Temperature Chemical-Resistant FEP-Encapsulated Silicone O-Rings

Seal lines and valves in HVAC systems, freezers, and other cold applications exposed to chemicals. Made with an FEP casing, these O-rings are protected against chemicals such as methanol and boric acid. They’re a step up from Viton® fluoroelastomer in chemical resistance but less robust than PTFE. Their silicone core stays compressible even in temperatures as low as -75° F. All have a shelf life, cure date, and traceable lot number printed on the bag.

Certificates with a traceable lot number are available for these products. Download certificates from ORDER HISTORY after your order ships.
