Aerospace O-ring family, silicone, AMS7267

AS9386 O-rings: silicone 70 to 80 to AMS7267

AS9386-XXX is a silicone (VMQ) O-ring made from AMS7267 material, the heat resistant, low compression set silicone in the 70 to 80 hardness class, with the AS568 nominal size of the same dash; the DoD MS9386 sheet holds a tighter inside-diameter tolerance than AS568 above 0.500 in. AS9385-YY is the callout for the same material in the straight-thread boss sizes. AS9386 and AMS7267 are current; SAE cancelled AS9385 in October 2020, and DoD withdrew its adoption on 2024-02-22, naming SAE-AS9386 as the replacement. MS9386 and MS9385 are the legacy callouts.

Designator to AS568 size

AS9386-XXX carries the three-digit AS568 dash, and AS9385-YY the two-digit boss dash, which names the tube outside diameter in sixteenths of an inch and has the AS568-9YY nominal size. The DoD size sheets, MS9386 Revision B and MS9385 Revision A, give each dash the AS568 nominal size of the same dash but hold a tighter inside-diameter tolerance than AS568 above 0.500 in, so the drawing governs. One manufacturer's 2024 cross-reference lists AS9386 as now including the -9YY parts formerly numbered AS9385-YY. MS9386 and MS9385 carry the same dashes, and the dash never changes the material.

Where the documents stand

This family is SAE-native: both drawings name AMS7267 in their titles, so no MIL material specification sits behind it. SAE reaffirmed both in 2018, cancelled AS9385 in October 2020 (the cancelled record is revision A), and revised AS9386 to B on 2021-07-07 (its revision A is dated January 2020), and AMS7267 is at revision H of 2021-05-19. The MS9386 and MS9385 drawings came first (their last revisions, B and A, are dated 1975-01-17): DoD canceled them in 1999 (MS9386 on 1999-10-15, MS9385 on 1999-12-29) and superseded them by the SAE drawings with the same part numbers, so those numbers on older prints are the legacy callouts for the same two drawings.

DoD withdrew its adoption of SAE-AS9385 on 2024-02-22, and the withdrawal notice names SAE-AS9386 as the replacement. One manufacturer's 2024 cross-reference likewise lists AS9385 as obsolete and says AS9386 now includes the -9YY boss parts. A cancelled document can still be the one a print calls out, so this page keeps both numbers and we quote whichever the print reads.

The base polymer

The polymer behind this family is silicone (VMQ). The Parker O-Ring Handbook ORD 5700 family range for Silicone (VMQ) (section 2.2, read 2026-09-14) is -54 C to 204 C; that is the polymer family's range, not this document's requirement, and the compound sheet for the qualified grade governs. Parker notes that specification temperature limits do not necessarily represent operating temperature limits.

How we quote this family

Send the designator as printed, AS9386-XXX or AS9385-YY (or the MS9386 / MS9385 form from an older drawing), with the dash, the quantity and the certification the order needs. We quote it supplied against the AS drawing in an AMS7267 silicone compound, with a certificate of conformance and lot traceability. If the print names a compound number, include it and we quote that compound.

Frequently asked

What material is an AS9386 O-ring?

Silicone (VMQ) made from AMS7267 material, the heat resistant, low compression set silicone sealing-ring document in the 70 to 80 hardness class; the AS9386 title names AMS7267 outright. Manufacturers supply it at 75, and Parker ORD 5700 (2021) pairs S0355-75 with AMS7267.

What is the difference between AS9385 and AS9386?

Size series. AS9386-XXX carries the standard sizes with the three-digit AS568 dash, and AS9385-YY the straight-thread boss sizes with the AS568-9YY nominal size, both on AMS7267 silicone. SAE cancelled AS9385 in October 2020, and DoD withdrew its adoption on 2024-02-22, naming SAE-AS9386 as the replacement; Freudenberg Sealing Technologies' Aerospace Part and Material Cross-Reference (brochure, July 2024) says AS9386 now includes the -9YY boss parts. Send whichever number the print reads and we quote that part.

What is AMS7267?

An SAE silicone rubber sealing-ring document, heat resistant with low compression set, 70 to 80 hardness, current at revision H of 2021-05-19. It is the material behind AS9386 and AS9385. It differs from AMS3304, the general heat and weather resistant silicone behind AS3582.

My drawing says MS9386; is that the same part?

Yes, by part number: DoD canceled the MS9386 drawing on 1999-10-15 and superseded it by SAE-AS9386, and the cancellation notice keeps the part numbers identical. MS9385, the boss drawing, was canceled on 1999-12-29 and superseded by SAE-AS9385 the same way. Send the callout as the print reads it and we quote the AMS7267 part with the MS number noted on the paperwork.
