RS PRO Fluorelastomer O-Ring, 8 mm ID, 12 mm OD, Black, 2 mm Thickness, -15°C to 200°C, Shore A 79 196-5700

RS PRO 196-5700 Fluorelastomer O-Ring is a precision sealing component designed for industrial, manufacturing, and engineering applications. With an 8 mm inside diameter, 12 mm outside diameter, and a thickness of 2 mm, this black O-ring meets stringent sealing requirements for hydraulic, pneumatic, and mechanical systems. It operates within a wide temperature range of -15°C to 200°C, making it suitable for environments with variable thermal loads and chemical exposure.

The O-ring is made from fluorocarbon elastomer (FKM), recognized for its excellent chemical resistance and durability. Hardness is rated Shore A 79, ensuring robust mechanical strength and the capability to maintain a secure seal under compression. Its versatile shape is ideal for use as shaft seals, face-to-face seals, or for facilitating rotary and linear motion systems.

Applications span across industrial and manufacturing processes, plumbing installations, hydraulic and pneumatic circuits, automotive repairs, and power transmission technology. The O-ring prevents fluid, vapor, and particle leaks, maintaining system integrity and pressure. It protects internal components from contamination and supports proper function and operational safety.

Use cases include pumps, drive belts, cylinders, valve assemblies, and other engineering equipment where a secure seal between two or more surfaces is required. Its chemical compatibility extends to most hydrocarbons, oils, fuels, and solvents commonly found in industrial setups, although it is not compatible with glycol-based brake fluids, ammonia gas, amines, alkalis, superheated steam, and certain low molecular weight organic acids.

O-ring service life is indefinite when operated within recommended conditions and with compatible materials and fluids. The product is part of RS PRO's renowned quality range, tested against rigorous technical standards to meet industrial demands.

Suitable for sealing pumps, drive belts, and hydraulic or pneumatic equipment. Constructed from high-quality fluorelastomer (FKM) for robust chemical resistance. Wide operating temperature range from -15°C to 200°C enables use in demanding environments.

Black O-ring with Shore A 79 hardness provides durable sealing performance. Typical application areas include industrial, manufacturing, automotive, plumbing, hydraulics, and power transmission. Prevents leakage of fluids, vapors, and particles, ensuring reliable operation and safety.

Available in metric sizes for universal compatibility with engineering equipment. Offers extended service life when used with compatible fluids and materials. Explore RS PRO's range of gaskets and seals for complete industrial sealing solutions on EnvMart.
