To those overhauling ABC valves - you need these o-rings

Fluorosilicone (FLS or FVMQ) O-Rings

Sizes: AS568 sizes 7, 8, 9, 10, 12

They are in blue color and typically used in aerospace applications. You need them if you plan to use Pentosin CHF 202 interchangeably with Pentosin CHF 11S Because Pentosin 202 has heavily-hydrogenated neutral oils. Yeah the green color is just a die to differentiate from other oils.

Neoprene, SBR Rubber, Low Nitrile Buna N are not recommended

To those who want to nitpick:
(Both have high viscosity index but 11S is slightly better, I've been using 202 on my cars for both steering and ABC without issues, 202 is slightly cheaper for some reason)

CHF 11S

Product Attributes
Appearance Dark Green
Density at 20°C 825 kg/m³
Kinematic Viscosity at 100ºC 6.0 mm²/s
Kinematic Viscosity at 40ºC 18.7 mm²/s
Kinematic Viscosity at -40ºC 1100 mm²/s
Viscosity Index 313
Pour Point -57°C/-70.6°F
Flash Point 160°C/320°F
Ignition Temperature 235°C/455°F

CHEMICAL FAMILY: Blend of synthetic hydrocarbons, additives
and dye.

CHF 202

Product Attributes
Appearance Dark Green
Density at 15°C 840 kg/m³
Kinematic Viscosity at 100ºC 6.1 mm²/s

Viscosity Index 302
Pour Point -54°C/-65.2°F
Flash Point 154°C/309.2°F
Ignition Temperature 245°C/473°F

CHEMICAL FAMILY: Mixture of severely hydrogenated solvent
neutral oils, synthetic hydrocarbons and additives.

This is good. Where are you getting the orings from and how many of each sizes?

I ordered a metric O-ring sizing tool. The AS568 also works but wanted to get exact metric rings. Will post those details once I get them.

I got mine from http://www.marcorubber.com/orings.htm
(THERE IS A MINIMUM ORDER)

F1001-006 50 pcs @ $0.56 ea Stock
F1001-007 50 pcs @ $0.58 ea Stock
F1001-008 50 pcs @ $0.58 ea Stock
F1001-009 50 pcs @ $0.59 ea Stock
