Detailed Engineering Specifications

Built to exacting engineering tolerances, this Buna-N O-ring boasts an Inside Diameter of 4.028 inches, an Outside Diameter of 7.415 inches, and a precise 0.255-inch cross-section. The Buna-N (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) material provides excellent resilience and a broad operating temperature range, coupled with superior resistance to petroleum-based oils, fuels, greases, and hydraulic fluids. The carbon steel construction, while not the sealing material itself, indicates the intended application environment or housing where such an O-ring would be utilized, suggesting robust mechanical support and compatibility with steel mating components. This combination makes it ideal for static and dynamic sealing applications in hydraulic systems, pneumatic assemblies, and automotive components where fluid compatibility and dimensional integrity are paramount.
