O-rings commonly provide a pressure and fluid seal between cylindrically shaped, overlapping mating surfaces and are commonly used for engines, faucets, flanges, valves, and various cylinders.
NITRILE/BUNA-N (NBR)
Nitrile, more commonly known as Buna-N, o-rings are the most popular and widely used o-rings because of their low cost, good mechanical performance and resistance to water, most basic oils, lubricants and some fuels. Buna-N o-rings typically tend to function well in applications that have limited temperature and resistance requirements.
