90A Durometer Urethane Back-Up Rings -016 Dash Size, Per Pack

Description & Features

Molded from 90A durometer urethane, these back-up rings are designed to resist extrusion in hydraulic sealing applications where O-ring support is required. The urethane construction allows the rings to be stretched for installation, then return quickly to their original shape, simplifying fitment without the need for special tools.

The 90A Durometer Urethane Back-Up Rings -016 Dash Size, Per Pack from Hercules Sealing Products are sized to correspond with standard O-ring dash sizes, making cross-referencing straightforward. The -016 dash size suits applications requiring precise dimensional compatibility with existing seal groove configurations. Rated for a temperature range of -65°F to 220°F, these urethane rings are well-suited for a broad range of hydraulic cylinder and actuator sealing environments. Sold in packs of 10.

Hey, will these urethane back-up rings work with standard O-ring sizes?

Absolutely. Sizes correspond to O-Ring sizes, so you should be good to go.
Question by: Glen T on Oct 31, 2025, 1:45 PM
these back-up rings stretch for install and then snap back to size -- how forgiving is that process if you're working in tight quarters with limited hand room?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 1, 2025, 3:09 PM
Urethane has a fair amount of natural give to it, so stretching these over a groove is pretty manageable even when space is limited. The 90A durometer material is firm enough to hold its shape under pressure but flexible enough that you're not fighting it during installation. Once seated, it returns to its original dimensions quickly, so you're not left trying to coax it into position. Just make sure the groove matches the corresponding O-ring dash size, since these are sized to those standards.
