1072GB

Overview

The Greenlee Communications 1072GB is a specialized mechanical component classified as an O-ring. It is constructed from Nitrile material with a Shore A hardness of 70-D. The part features precise dimensional specifications: an inner diameter of 0.375 inches, an outer diameter of 0.562 inches, and a cross-sectional thickness of 0.093 inches. This specific configuration allows it to function as a sealing element within various mechanical assemblies requiring fluid or gas containment.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from durable Nitrile rubber for reliable sealing performance
• Engineered with specific Shore A 70-D hardness characteristics
• Designed with standardized dimensional tolerances for consistent fit

Applications

• Mechanical sealing in hydraulic systems
• Pneumatic system component retention
• General industrial equipment maintenance

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact dimensional requirements against the target assembly before procurement. Confirm that the Nitrile material composition meets the chemical compatibility needs of the operating environment. Ensure the Shore A 70-D hardness specification aligns with the pressure and temperature conditions expected during operation to prevent premature failure.

Selection Notes

Select this part when a standard Nitrile O-ring with these specific dimensions is required. Consider the chemical resistance of Nitrile against oils and fuels. Evaluate if the 70-D hardness provides adequate compression set resistance for the intended static or dynamic application. Compare against alternative elastomers if exposure to ozone or extreme temperatures exceeds Nitrile capabilities.

Part Context

This item belongs to the category of mechanical seals and gaskets used in industrial tooling and equipment maintenance. Greenlee Communications distributes such components alongside their primary line of installation tools. The part serves as a replacement or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) seal for maintaining integrity in pressurized systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 0.375 x 0.562 x 0.093 inch dimensions and Nitrile 70-D specification. Generic O-rings may vary in material grade or tolerance; verify compliance with AS568 or equivalent standards if applicable.
