This Quad-Ring set is made of Black Buna-N, has a durometer of 70A, and includes 382 pieces covering 30 dash sizes. The rings have a Round cross-section and can be used across a wide temperature range from -40 degrees F (-40 degrees C) to 212 degrees F (100 degrees C). The rings come in a plastic storage case designed for organization and portability. Designed for use in a variety of sealing applications, this Buna-N Quad-Ring set meets standards defined by Aerospace Standard AS568A for quality assurance.
The set includes the following Quad-Rings: 20 pieces each for dash sizes 006, 007, 008, 009, 010, 011, and 012; 13 pieces each for dash sizes 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, and 116; 10 pieces each for dash sizes 210, 211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 217, 218, 219, 220, 221, and 222; 7 pieces each for dash sizes 325, 326, and 327.
Buna-nitrile can have high tensile strength, as well as abrasion, tear, and compression set resistance. It is compatible for use with petroleum, hexafluoroacetone (HFA), hexafluoro-2-butyne (HFB) and hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) fluids, vegetable oil, alcohol, acids, and aliphatic hydrocarbons. Buna-nitrile is vulnerable to acetone, ethers, esters, ozone, sunlight and weathering, and should not be used in ozone-generating electric motors, welding equipment, or in applications with exposure to UV light.
The durometer hardness of this Buna-N Quad-Ring is 70A. Durometers measure the hardness of a material and its resistance to permanent indentation. A higher durometer value indicates greater resistance to indentation. On a scale of 0 to 100, a value of 0 indicates that a sample was completely penetrated, while a value of 100 shows no indentation in the sample. The letter following the number identifies the shore scale, which is either shore A or D. Shore A is used for rubber, while shore D is used for harder plastics.
Quad rings, also called X-rings, have a double sealing function as compared to an O-ring and can be used in a wide variety of static and dynamic sealing applications. The four-lobed design provides twice the sealing surface in comparison to a standard o-ring. The double-seal action requires less squeeze to maintain an effective seal. This reduction in squeeze means less friction and improved seal life. X-Rings are measured by their inside diameter (ID), outisde diameter (OD), and cross-sectional (CS) diameter, just like o-rings.
