DESCRIPTION

Our 8-N backup rings help prevent extrusion in high pressure service and compensate for loose fitting parts. These backup rings have a contour design and are manufactured from 90-duromenter nitrile. The 8-N backups will stretch up to 50% and are quickly and easily installed. 

Our 8-N contoured backup rings are generally usable through a temperature range of -40 to 250. Hardening of this material due to high or low temperatures often improves performance as a back-up ring. 

In double-acting seal assemblies, an 8-N backup is required on both sides of the o-ring. It is cheap insurance to use two even in single acting installations. At assembly, it is too easy to place a single 8-N backup on the wrong side of the o-ring. By specifying one on each side of the o-ring, there be one on the low pressure side, where it is needed, and the extra 8-N backup does no harm. 

This style is also available in Fluorocarbon for use in a wide range of chemical media and high temperature resistance up to 400F. For Fluorocarbon, replace the -N with -V at the end of the part number.
