O-Rings - HNBR, Black, 80 Shore A
O-rings are circular sealing rings with a round cross-section. When an O-ring is fitted into a groove and compressed between two surfaces, it forms a seal that prevents the escape of liquids or gases. O-rings are suitable for both static and dynamic applications.
These O-rings are made from HNBR (hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber), which is produced by the hydrogenation of nitrile rubber. This process gives HNBR higher heat resistance and better resistance to ozone and ageing than standard NBR, while retaining its resistance to oils and fuels. HNBR also has high mechanical strength and abrasion resistance. At 80 Shore A, the material offers greater resistance to extrusion than softer grades, while remaining more flexible than 90 Shore A, making it well suited to high-pressure hydraulic applications.
Chemical Compatibility
HNBR is recommended for use with petroleum oils and greases, hydraulic oils, aliphatic hydrocarbons, vegetable and animal oils and fats, silicone greases, water-based hydraulic fluids (HFA, HFB and HFC), water and hydrogen sulphide (H₂S). Dilute acids, alkalis and saline solutions are generally acceptable at moderate temperatures.
Limitations
HNBR is not recommended for use with aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, ketones (such as acetone), esters, ethers, strong acids, glycol-based brake fluids or fuels with a high aromatic content.
Applications
These O-rings are suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature hydraulic systems, oil and gas equipment, automotive fuel systems and general industrial machinery.
Installation Guidance
Make sure that the groove and mating surfaces are clean and free from burrs. Apply a thin film of compatible lubricant before fitting, and do not stretch or roll the O-ring over sharp edges or threads.
