It measures 8.5 inches inside diameter and 8.688 inches outside diameter, with a thickness of 0.0937 inches (3\/32 inches) and a 70 Shore A hardness rating. Rated for service from -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F, this O-ring delivers excellent resistance to petroleum products, good compression set characteristics, and strong tear and abrasion resistance. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical technicians install this type of seal where a reliable, chemically compatible elastomer is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis O-ring is suited for use in residential and commercial applications involving petroleum-based fluids, hydraulic oil, water, and similar media. Its Buna-N compound is the most widely specified O-ring elastomer in trade work, making it a practical choice for pump housings, valve bonnets, pipe flanges, filter housings, and similar large-bore sealing applications. The Dash 173 designation conforms to SAE and MIL-Spec dimensional standards, so it fits wherever those standards are called out in a parts list or maintenance manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuna-N (Nitrile) compound with excellent resistance to petroleum products and hydraulic fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e70 Shore A hardness for firm compression set and durable sealing across a wide range of clamping loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOperating temperature range of -40 degrees F to 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRound cross section, Dash 173 standard dimensions conforming to SAE and MIL-Spec requirements\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStrong tear and abrasion resistance for long service life in dynamic and static sealing applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack color; package quantity of 25 per unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with petroleum products and petroleum-based fluids per manufacturer data. Conforms to SAE and MIL-Spec dimensional standards for Dash 173 O-rings. Not FDA approved; not recommended for food-contact or ozone-heavy environments. Avoid storage in direct sunlight or near motors and electrical equipment that may generate ozone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlumbers, pipefitters, and hydraulic technicians should shut down system pressure and drain or depressurize the line before replacing O-rings. Lubricate the O-ring with a compatible fluid or grease before seating to prevent pinching or tearing during assembly. Do not store Buna-N O-rings near ozone-generating equipment such as electric motors, welding equipment, or in direct sunlight, as ozone accelerates elastomer degradation. Follow applicable system manufacturer torque specs and applicable codes such as IPC or SAE service procedures when reassembling the joint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Buna-N (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDash Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 173\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8.688 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0937 inches (3\/32 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCross Section Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 70 Shore A (Hard)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 250 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Media\u003c\/strong\u003e: Petroleum Products\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE, MIL-Spec\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFDA Approved\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: ZMSCH70173\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51722229547314,"sku":"ZMSCH70173","price":20.63,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9b38720f2787b9fe7862c26f8981c633.jpg?v=1788587801","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-zmsch70173-o-ring-dash-173-buna-n-70a","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
