Nitrile O-Rings
O-Rings
Nitrile (or Buna-N or NBR) O-rings are widely recognized for their excellent sealing and mechanical properties at a cost-effective price. They’re highly resistant to common lubricants, including crude oil, gasoline, propane, and petroleum oils, making them ideal for a range of applications.
These O-rings are often used as face-to-face and shaft seals, accommodating both rotary and linear movement. They’re perfect for use in engines, gearboxes, aircraft pumps, and water-related applications.
Our Trusted Suppliers
WWe maintain close relationships with manufacturers like Parker and Freudenberg to offer reliable and high-quality NBR O-rings to our customers.
Design Specifics
Nitrile O-rings are designed for general-purpose sealing, providing a reliable, cost-effective solution for sealing applications. They offer excellent mechanical properties, such as abrasion resistance, and operate effectively within a broad temperature range from -30°F to 250°F (-57°C to 121°C). These O-rings are ideal for use in dynamic applications where rotary or linear movement is required, ensuring long-lasting sealing performance.
How Buna-N O-Rings Work
The nitrile in Buna-N O-rings gives them balanced mechanical properties, resistance to petroleum-based fluids, and the ability to perform under various environmental conditions. While they do have limitations with exposure to ozone and strong acids, their excellent performance in a wide range of industrial and automotive applications makes them a trusted choice for general sealing needs.
