FINAL SALE - NO RETURNS. THIS IS A STANDARD CATALOGUE SIZE; CONFIRM YOUR DIMENSIONS AND MATERIAL BEFORE ORDERING.

Chasing a leak, a slow drip or a pressure loss you cannot track down? A flattened, hardened or wrong-size o-ring lets fluid weep past the joint, drops pressure, and can damage the parts around it.

What It Fits
This size is used across chemical processing pumps and valves, semiconductor tools, analytical instruments and high-temperature process equipment. If your manual, parts list or old ring calls for AS568-112 12.37mm ID x 2.62mm CS (0.487" x 0.103"), this is the part.
Why FFKM Perfluoroelastomer
FFKM is the top tier of elastomer sealing, specified where nothing else survives the chemistry or the temperature. Recommended for nearly all chemicals, solvents, acids, bases, steam and extreme heat. Not recommended for molten alkali metals and some fluorinated solvents.
You Can Do This Repair
Clean the groove and mating surfaces and check them for nicks or burrs. Lubricate the new o-ring, then roll it into the groove without twisting it; pass it over threads or sharp edges on a piece of tape or a plastic sleeve so it is not cut. Tighten to the normal torque. A correct o-ring seals by squeeze, so more torque is not better.
Pro Tip: A thin coat of Aqua Flex silicone lubricant eases installation, protects the seal on first start-up and extends its life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit my equipment?
A: It fits any groove or fitting that calls for a AS568-112 12.37mm ID x 2.62mm CS (0.487" x 0.103") o-ring. Size, not brand, determines fit for standard o-rings. Measure the old o-ring's inside diameter and cross-section with calipers, or better, measure the groove, because a used ring stretches and flattens. Match the material to the fluid: the right size in the wrong rubber will still fail.
Q: What is FFKM Perfluoroelastomer good for?
A: It is suited to nearly all chemicals, solvents, acids, bases, steam and extreme heat. Avoid molten alkali metals and some fluorinated solvents.
Q: Can I install it myself?
A: Yes. Most o-ring replacements take only a pick tool, a clean rag and lubricant. Release pressure, drain the system if needed, remove the old ring, and follow the installation notes above. If it is your first time, take a photo before you take anything apart.
Q: When will it ship?
A: It ships from our facility in about 10 business days, then transits by the carrier service you choose.

Dry seals and o-rings pinch, twist and tear going in, and that is a second teardown you did not need. AQUA FLEX is NSF H1 rated and one tube covers dozens of installs.
