O-Ring Size Chart for Standard O-Ring Dimensions

We offer a wide selection of O-rings in various styles and materials to meet the diverse needs of your applications. Among our offerings, AS568 O-rings are one of the most commonly used standards in the industry, adhering to the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) specifications. To help you find the correct size, refer to the AS568 O-ring size chart below. 

When measuring an O-ring, it’s important to determine the inside diameter (ID) and cross-sectional diameter (CS) of your existing O-ring or the gland where the O-ring will be placed. Once you’ve identified the appropriate AS568 dash size, you can select the right compound from our Chemical Compatibility table, ensuring optimal performance in your specific environment.

If you need assistance in measuring or selecting the correct O-ring size, or material, or have any other questions, our team of experienced application engineers is ready to help. Contact us for personalized support or explore our O-Ring Considerations blog post for more detailed information on choosing the best O-ring for your needs.

Tips for Specifying and Measuring O-Ring Sizes

  1. Use Standard O-Ring Sizing When Possible: Leverage standardized sizes, such as those defined by SAE AS568, to simplify selection and ensure compatibility with existing hardware designs.
  2. Consider the Application: When specifying size, factor in the application’s dynamic or static nature. Dynamic applications may require tighter fits and different groove dimensions to prevent movement and wear.
  3. Measure Accurately: Utilize precise calibrated measuring inspection tools, such as calipers, to determine the dimensions of the groove or shaft the O-Ring will seal. Ensure measurements of the proper fit account for any potential manufacturing tolerances.
  4. Consult Compatibility Charts: Consult size compatibility charts or contact experts like Sealing Devices, Inc. for guidance on selecting the optimal O-ring size for your specific application.

Sealing Devices offers over a million o-rings in standard and non-standard sizes. We work with leading suppliers such as Parker and Freudenberg to maintain inventory of popular sizes and to supply o-rings that are not readily available. Our applications engineers are readily available to help you determine the right product for the job.

Our o-rings are made from many compounds, including but not limited to:

FFKM O-Rings

FFKM O-Rings

Perfluoroelastomer (FFKM; Kalrez) O-rings offer resistance to the highest temperatures of any rubber, coupled with extremely broad chemical compatibility and very low extractable levels.

FKM Viton O-Rings

(FKM/fluorocarbon) Viton O-rings offer strong chemical compatibility with good high-temperature performance and good compression set resistance.

FMVQ (Fluorosilicone) O-Rings

Good resistance to fuel, oil and solvent resistance for ozone, aromatic hydrocarbons, sunlight and chlorinated materials.

o-ring

Neoprene O-Rings

Cost-effective solution for good ozone resistance, and fair resistance to petroleum oils.

FFKM O-Rings

Silicone O-Rings

Long life against sunlight and ozone in dry heat applications.

Buna-N O-Rings

(NBR, nitrile) excellent oil, fuel and petroleum resistance. Good for greases, hydraulic fluids, water.

o-ring

Ethylene Propylene O-Rings

 (EPDM) Good for resistance to steam/hot water, alkalies, alcohol, automotive fluids.

AFLAS O-Rings

AFLAS O-Rings are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, making them ideal for engine coolants and automotive fluids.

Non-Standard Size O-Rings

For non-standard or larger sizes we offer non-molded, spliced and vulcanized O-Rings for select materials.
