HNBR O-rings
Hydrogenated nitrile (HNBR) significantly outperforms conventional nitrile in resisting heat and sour crude oil. HNBR is recommended when upgrading from nitrile or as an economical alternative to more expensive fluorocarbon elastomers.
Parco’s HNBR O-rings provide excellent service with corrosion inhibitors, sour crude, and ultraviolet light. Individual HNBR compounds have service temperatures within the range from -40 to +325°F.
