Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber O Ring

Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber O Ring

Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber O-ring is a circular sealing element made by hydrogenating nitrile rubber, which reduces carbon double bonds in the polymer chain to improve heat and chemical resistance. It seals by being compressed 10–30% inside a groove, forming a barrier between mating metal or polymer surfaces to block oil, gas, or hydraulic fluid leakage. The material is typically compounded with carbon black and curing agents, with hardness ranges of 50–80 Shore A.

Why Choose This Product?

 

  • Performance Comparison

 

Performance Metric NBR HNBR FKM
Temperature Range -65~150°C -40~150°C -45~300°C
Oil Resistance Medium High High
Aging Resistance Low High High
Mechanical Strength Medium High Medium
Extrusion Resistance Medium High Medium

 

  • Application Matching

 

Operating Condition Recommended Material Notes
Standard Oil/Water Sealing NBR General-purpose, cost-effective solution
Hydraulic / Engine Systems HNBR Optimal balance of temperature, oil, and pressure
High-Temp Chemical Environments FKM Priority on high-temperature stability
High Pressure with Large Gaps HNBR Superior extrusion resistance

 

 

  • Failure Modes

 

Incorrect Selection Potential Consequence Typical Failure Symptom
Using NBR in high-temp engines Accelerated material aging Hardening, cracking, leakage
Using NBR in high-pressure hydraulics Insufficient extrusion resistance O-ring extrusion damage
Using FKM in low-cost systems Excessive cost Over-engineering, poor cost-performance
Ignoring media compatibility Material swelling Seal failure, volume expansion

 

  • Material Positioning

 

HNBR combines three capabilities that neither NBR nor FKM offers alone: oil resistance + aging resistance + extrusion resistance at 150°C continuous service. For hydraulic and engine systems, this combination makes it the recommended material over both alternatives.

FAQ

 

Q1: How are the products packaged?

 

A: Standard packaging consists of industrial-grade individual sealed bags, reinforced with outer cartons or woven bags for safe transit. Each batch is clearly labeled with specifications, material type, and production batch number to ensure full traceability.

 

Q2: What is the lead time?

 

A:Standard in-stock sizes: Shipped within 1–3 days.Custom non-standard sizes: Production takes 5–7 days.(Exact lead time depends on specific dimensions and order quantity.)

 

Q3: What shipping methods are supported?

 

A: We offer the following international shipping options:

  • DHL / FedEx Express (for small batches)
  • Air Freight (for medium-volume orders)
  • Sea Freight (for large-volume orders)

 

Q4: Do you support customization?

 

A: Yes, we support the following customizations:

  • Non-standard dimension manufacturing
  • Hardness adjustments (60–90 Shore A)
  • Material formula optimization (HNBR grade adjustments)
  • OEM packaging and label customization

 

Q5: How do I confirm if HNBR is the right material for my application?

 

A: We recommend providing the following parameters for engineering selection and confirmation:

  • Operating temperature range
  • Media type (oil / fuel / refrigerant)
  • Operating pressure range
  • Whether it is a dynamic sealing structure
