    Find the right size, compare compatible materials, and choose the best cross section shape for your O-ring.

    Oil-Resistant Buna-N O-Rings

    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.

    Image of Attribute. Front orientation. CrossSection view. Contains Annotated. O-Rings. 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.

    Made of silicone, these O-rings withstand temperatures up to 400° F. They have flat edges on all four sides, so they cover more surface than round-profile O-rings. This means they create better seals in static applications, such as hose, pipe, and faucet connections. All have shelf life, a cure date, and a traceable lot number printed on the bag.

    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.
