• Buna-N is available in a wide range of Durometers and Colors,

Calculating the gaskets min radius of curvature

R= CE/S( inches)

where , R= radius of curvature in inches C= 1/2 the thickness of the material E= modulus of elasticity S= maximum fiber stress of yield stress of the material

Example for Buna-N

C = 2.36 mm/2 E= Elongation/Tensile = 4/2150 (1/psi) S =
