SealSpec / O-rings

O-rings for production designs

Size, material and groove reference for engineers specifying O-rings, plus a builder that turns your choices into a spec sheet.

By material

Viton / FKMFKM fluoroelastomer: the default for fuels, oils, many chemicals and heat (to ~400 °F for standard grades).
Nitrile / Buna-NNBR: the general-purpose choice for petroleum oils, hydraulic fluid and water; weak in ozone/UV and ketones.
EPDMEPDM: water, steam, glycol, brake fluid and outdoor exposure; swells in petroleum oils.
SiliconeVMQ: very wide temperature range and food/medical grades; low tear strength, not for dynamic service or fuels.
FluorosiliconeFVMQ: silicone's temperature range with improved fuel and oil resistance; mostly static use.
NeopreneCR: moderate oil and weather resistance; common in refrigeration and general industrial seals.
