Value Collection 0284070 Buna-n Round Cord Stock

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 0284070 is a Buna-N (nitrile rubber) round cord stock supplied in a 100-foot standard coil. Buna-N compound provides good resistance to petroleum-based oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids, making this cord stock a reliable choice for sealing and gasketing applications in HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance work. The cord measures 0.070 inches (1/16 inch nominal) in diameter and is dimensionally consistent along its full length. Technicians and maintenance professionals use this material to fabricate custom O-ring seals, rope gaskets, and compression seals on the job or in the shop.

This cord stock is suited for use in residential and light commercial environments where petroleum fluid exposure is a concern. It performs in refrigeration equipment, hydraulic assemblies, fuel system components, and general plumbing connections where a field-cut nitrile seal is needed. The round profile seats consistently in standard cord grooves and can be cut and bonded to length for custom sealing loops. The inch-measurement system makes it straightforward to size cuts using standard hand tools.

Key Features

• Buna-N (nitrile) compound offers resistance to oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids
• Round cross-section profile for consistent groove seating
• 1/16 inch nominal diameter (0.070 inches actual) for use in standard small-profile cord grooves
• 100-foot coil length allows multiple field cuts from a single spool
• Inch measurement system simplifies sizing and cutting on the job

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose nitrile round cord stock suitable for fabricating custom seals and gaskets in oil-resistant sealing applications where 1/16 inch diameter Buna-N cord is specified.

Installation Notes

Cut cord stock to length using a clean, sharp blade to ensure a square end for bonding or butting. When forming a loop seal, use a compatible nitrile cord cement and allow full cure time before pressurizing the assembly. Follow the equipment manufacturer's service procedures and applicable codes when replacing seals in pressurized systems. Depressurize and isolate any system before removing existing seals or installing new cord stock.
