*The HNBR o-ring compound attributes are used to outline the basic properties. HNBR o-ring attributes can be adjusted by modifying the basic compound.
*Due to the number of interacting forces, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOUR ELASTOMER SELECTION BE RIGOROUSLY TESTED IN THE ACTUAL APPLICATION, performance assumptions must be checked so that you are certain that all variables have been carefully considered.
*The chemical compatibility and physical properties are listed as general characteristics of the HNBR o-ring compound. Speciality compounds can be derived to enhance or modify the performance to meet o-ring’s application needs.

All stocked
HNBR AS568 o-rings have three measurement types. First, a nominal inch reference, then actual inch sizes, and finally the metric size displayed in millimeters. HNBR o-rings are stocked and cataloged by their
AS568 number. This number references the Aerospace Standard 568 (AS 568) which was published by the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers). Each o-ring is assigned a dash number which correlates directly to an exact o-ring size. You may view a complete chart of these o-ring sizes
here.HNBR O-rings are available in several metric sizes.
Metric O-rings are cataloged by their cross section and inside diameter. Columbia references the
metric HNBR o-rings by the compound number and the cross section along with the inside diameter. You may view a complete chart of the
metric o-ring sizes
