Mil-spec part number, AS3209 and AS3208 family

AS3208-24 O-ring: fluorocarbon (FKM), the AS568-924 size

AS3208-24 is the AS568-924 O-ring size, 1.720 in (43.69 mm) inside diameter by 0.118 in (3.00 mm) cross-section, in fluorocarbon (FKM) procured to SAE AS3208 (AMS7276). The SAE Mobilus record reads: AS3208A stabilized (2020). The dash sets the size and the document sets the compound, so an AS568-924 in another compound is not the same part as AS3208-24. Send the designator exactly as the print reads and we quote it against that document.

Same nominal size, other documents

Other part numbers for the AS568-924 size

These part numbers name the AS568-924 nominal size under a different document, so each one is a different compound. They are not interchangeable with AS3208-24 unless the print or the buyer's engineering allows it. At this size the family sheets for MS29512-24 and AS9385-24 hold a tighter inside-diameter tolerance than AS568.

The base polymer

AS3208-24 is fluorocarbon (FKM). The ParkerĀ® O-Ring Handbook ORD 5700 range published for the FKM family (section 2.2) is -26 C to 204 C. That is the polymer family's range, not this document's requirement; the compound sheet for the qualified grade governs.

Frequently asked

What is the AS568 equivalent of AS3208-24?

AS3208-24 is the AS568-924 size: 1.720 in (43.69 mm) inside diameter by 0.118 in (3.00 mm) cross-section. The dash sets the size; SAE AS3208 (AMS7276) sets the fluorocarbon (FKM) compound. An AS568-924 ring in any other compound has the same dimensions but is not the same part as AS3208-24.

What is the NSN for AS3208-24?

DLA's public FLIS data lists AS3208-24 on NSN 5331-00-165-1978 (read 2026-10-08). An NSN is the federal catalog's number for the item; your contract or print decides what is ordered.

Is SAE-AS3208 still active?

The document status reads: AS3208A stabilized (2020). It comes from the SAE Mobilus record listed under Sources, with the date it was read.

How do I order AS3208-24?

Send the designator exactly as the print reads, with its revision, any suffix letter, the quantity and the paperwork the order needs. AS3208-24 is quoted and supplied against SAE AS3208 (AMS7276), in the compound the print calls out, with a certificate of conformance with every order. When the print calls out a QPL-listed specification, the finished molded O-ring, or the material it is molded from, comes from a manufacturer listed on that QPL; Conquest supplies it and is not itself on any QPL. A Conquest representative replies within one business day.
