Mil-spec part number, MS29513 and MS29512 family

MS29512-05 O-ring: nitrile (NBR), AS568-905 nominal size

MS29512-05 has the AS568-905 nominal size, 0.414 in (10.52 mm) inside diameter by 0.072 in (1.83 mm) cross-section, in nitrile (NBR) procured to MIL-P-5315 (MS29512 boss drawing). The DLA ASSIST and SAE Mobilus records read: Canceled (MIL-P-5315); AS29512C current (revised 2016, reaffirmed 2021). The -05 names the tube OD in sixteenths of an inch, a 5/16 in tube, and matches AS568-905. At this size its DoD sheet, MS29512, gives the same inside-diameter tolerance as AS568, but the document sets the compound, so an AS568-905 ring in another compound is not the same part as MS29512-05. Send the designator exactly as the print reads and we quote it against that document.

Other part numbers for the AS568-905 size

These part numbers name the AS568-905 nominal size under a different document, so each one is a different compound. They are not interchangeable with MS29512-05 unless the print or the buyer's engineering allows it.

The base polymer

MS29512-05 is nitrile (NBR). The ParkerĀ® O-Ring Handbook ORD 5700 range published for the NBR family (section 2.2) is -34 C to 100 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 nominal size of MS29512-05?

MS29512-05 has the AS568-905 nominal size: 0.414 in (10.52 mm) inside diameter by 0.072 in (1.83 mm) cross-section, for a 5/16 in tube. At this size the MS29512 sheet gives the same inside-diameter tolerance as AS568, +/- 0.005 in, and MIL-P-5315 (MS29512 boss drawing) sets the nitrile (NBR) compound. An AS568-905 ring in any other compound is not the same part as MS29512-05.

What is the NSN for MS29512-05?

DLA's public FLIS data lists MS29512-05 on NSNs 5331-00-263-8029 and 5331-00-827-6917 (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-P-5315 still active?

The DLA ASSIST and SAE Mobilus records read: Canceled (MIL-P-5315); AS29512C current (revised 2016, reaffirmed 2021). The first status is the material document's: DLA ASSIST records MIL-P-5315 as canceled on 2002-02-28 and superseded by SAE AMS-P-5315, the material specification, now at revision AMSP5315C (revised 2022-08-05). The second is SAE-AS29512's, the SAE part standard that superseded the MS29512 drawing when DoD canceled the drawing on 2001-03-01; the cancellation notice keeps the part numbers unchanged. Both come from the DLA ASSIST and SAE Mobilus records listed under Sources, with the date each was read. 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 MS29512-05?

Send the designator exactly as the print reads, with its revision, any suffix letter, the quantity and the paperwork the order needs. MS29512-05 is quoted and supplied against MIL-P-5315 (MS29512 boss drawing) or SAE AS29512 (material specification: SAE AMS-P-5315), 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.
