Metric O-Rings

Metric O-Rings in Various Sizes and Compounds

Global O-Ring and Seal offers a large selection of metric o-ring sizes in various compounds. A metric o-ring simply means that the size of the o-ring is defined in millimeters. Generally, metrics are used when the size needed does not cross over to one of the standard AS568 sizes.

While we can supply any material/durometer/color of metric size o-rings, we carry an extensive selection of metric size o-rings in black Nitrile (Buna-N) 70 durometer and Viton (FKM) 75 durometer.

Metric O-Ring Tolerances:

Some of the standards referenced here do specify the acceptable tolerance ranges for the o-rings within that standard. However, With the exception of our AS568 size chart, our other size reference charts do not list tolerances, as these tend to vary between the standards issuing organizations. To view the size tolerances for the o-rings we sell, please refer to either the AS568 Size Chart for American Standard Sizes, or our Metric O-Ring Tolerances page for all other metric o-rings.
