1 Scope
This part of GB/T 3452 specifies the inside diameters, cross-sections, tolerances and size identification code for O-shaped rubber sealing rings (hereinafter referred to as "O-rings") used in fluid power systems for general purpose applications (series G), as well as for aerospace and similar applications (series A).
The dimensions and tolerances specified in this part are suitable for any elastomeric material, provided that suitable tooling is available.
Note: The tooling most commonly available is based on 70 IRHD NBR shrinkage rates. For materials that shrink differently from the standard NBR compound, a special mould can be required to maintain the mean diameters and the tolerance limits listed.
