Value Collection ZMSCV70246 Viton O-ring Dash 246 5-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION ZMSCV70246 is a Dash 246 Viton (fluoroelastomer) O-ring designed for static and dynamic sealing applications where exposure to petroleum products, high temperatures, or aggressive chemicals is a concern. Measuring 4.5 inches inside diameter, 4.75 inches outside diameter, and 0.125 inches thick, this round cross-section ring delivers a reliable seal in demanding service environments. With a Shore A hardness of 70 and a working temperature range of -15 degrees F to 400 degrees F, it is suited for high-heat systems including hydraulic circuits, fuel systems, and HVAC refrigerant or oil-side connections. Each package contains 5 rings.

This O-ring is commonly installed in residential and commercial HVAC equipment, plumbing systems, fuel-handling assemblies, and industrial hydraulic applications wherever a 4.5-inch ID groove is specified. Its fluoroelastomer compound makes it a preferred choice over standard Buna-N rings when service conditions involve elevated temperatures, petroleum-based fluids, or vacuum service. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, and millwrights typically install this ring as part of a seal kit replacement or scheduled maintenance service.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician following applicable codes such as NEC, IPC, or IFGC depending on the system type. Always depressurize, de-energize, and drain the system before removing the old O-ring or installing a replacement. Inspect the groove for nicks or debris, and apply a compatible lubricant to the O-ring before seating it to prevent tearing during assembly. Do not stretch the ring beyond what is necessary to seat it in the groove.
