Parker Butyl (IIR), Isoprene O-Rings Compound Numbering System:
Parker has one type of nomenclature used to reference Butyl (IIR), Isoprene® products.
| B |
| Polymer Code (Single Letter) |
| 0318 |
| Sequence Number (Four Digits) |
| -70 |
| Durometer Indicator (Two Digits) |
| ASTM D1418 Abbreviation |
| IIR |
| ESP Recommended Shelf Life |
| 25 Years |
| Hardness (Shore A) Range |
| 30 - 90 |
Temperature ranges will apply to the majority of media for which the material is potentially recommended. With some media however, the service temperature range may be significantly different. ALWAYS TEST UNDER ACUTAL SERVICE CONDITIONS.
ESP’s shelf life recommendation is based on the AS5316 standard and intended to be utilized by those organizations who do not already have specific recommendations for the control of elastomeric seals. It should be noted that the packaging of the elastomeric seals prior to assembly into a product is an integral part of the controlled storage procedure. It provides a positive means of product identity from the time of manufacture to the time of assembly.
