Mil-spec part number, M83248/1 and M83248/2 family

M83248/2-137 O-ring: fluorocarbon (FKM), the AS568-137 size

M83248/2-137 is the AS568-137 O-ring size, 2.050 in (52.07 mm) inside diameter by 0.103 in (2.62 mm) cross-section, in fluorocarbon (FKM) procured to MIL-R-83248/2 (Class 2) (the DLA ASSIST title names Class 2). The DLA ASSIST and SAE Mobilus records read: Canceled (MIL-R-83248/2); AS3581A stabilized (2020); AS83248/2A current (revised 2016, reaffirmed 2021). The dash sets the size and the document sets the compound, so an AS568-137 in another compound is not the same part as M83248/2-137. 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 AS568-137 size

These part numbers name the AS568-137 nominal size under a different document, so each one is a different compound. They are not interchangeable with M83248/2-137 unless the print or the buyer's engineering allows it. At this size the family sheets for MS28775-137, MS29513-137 and AS9386-137 hold a tighter inside-diameter tolerance than AS568.

The base polymer

M83248/2-137 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.

Material page: Fluorocarbon (FKM) O-rings. Every document in the family: M83248/1 and M83248/2 O-rings.

Frequently asked

What is the AS568 equivalent of M83248/2-137?

M83248/2-137 is the AS568-137 size: 2.050 in (52.07 mm) inside diameter by 0.103 in (2.62 mm) cross-section. The dash sets the size; MIL-R-83248/2 (Class 2) sets the fluorocarbon (FKM) compound. An AS568-137 ring in any other compound has the same dimensions but is not the same part as M83248/2-137.

What is the NSN for M83248/2-137?

DLA's public FLIS data lists M83248/2-137 on NSN 5331-01-185-1678 (read 2026-10-08). An NSN is the federal catalog's number for the item; your contract or print decides what is ordered.

Is MIL-R-83248/2 still active?

The document status reads: Canceled (MIL-R-83248/2); AS3581A stabilized (2020); AS83248/2A current (revised 2016, reaffirmed 2021). It comes from the DLA ASSIST and SAE Mobilus records listed under Sources, with the date each was read. The records name two SAE documents for this slash sheet: DLA ASSIST records MIL-R-83248/2 as canceled on 2004-01-22 and superseded by SAE-AS3581 and SAE-AMS7259, and AS3581's current revision, AS3581A, was stabilized in May 2020. SAE also issued AS83248/2, O-ring molded from AMS7259 material, in December 2014; its current revision, AS83248/2A (revised October 2016, reaffirmed November 2021), was adopted by DoD on 2025-11-03 and is Active in DLA ASSIST. A canceled or inactive MIL document can still be the one a print calls out, and your print decides which you order to.

How do I order M83248/2-137?

Send the designator exactly as the print reads, with its revision, any suffix letter, the quantity and the paperwork the order needs. M83248/2-137 is quoted and supplied against MIL-R-83248/2 (Class 2), SAE AS3581 (material specification: SAE AMS7259) or SAE AS83248/2, 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.
