N0406-60 Datasheet

Parker’s N0406-60 is a 60 Shore A black nitrile rubber (NBR) compound designed as a general-purpose sealing material for a wide range of industrial applications. Qualified to ASTM D2000 M5BG614, it delivers reliable sealing performance across a service temperature range of -40°F to 225°F while maintaining good flexibility and compression set resistance. This compound is compatible with petroleum-based oils, water up to 212°F, salt and alkali solutions, and weak acids, making it well suited for common hydraulic and fluid-handling environments. Its moderate durometer provides a balance of conformability and mechanical strength for dependable static and light dynamic sealing.

 

N0406-60 is commonly used for O-rings and gaskets in industrial equipment, pumps, valves, and general machinery where oil resistance and cost-effective performance are key requirements. It is not recommended for aromatic fuels, strong acids, glycols, ozone exposure, or polar solvents. This NBR grade offers a practical solution for everyday sealing needs where extreme chemical or temperature resistance is not required. Canyon Components offers equivalent nitrile materials designed to match the temperature capability, fluid compatibility, and general-purpose performance of Parker N0406-60.
