O-Ring Size Chart
3,417 sizes in 62 cross-section series — inner diameter from 1 mm to 2400 mm.
The tables below are organised by cross-section. First measure the cross-section of your O-ring, then find your size in the inner-diameter list of that series. The outer diameter is not listed separately; it is calculated as inner diameter + 2 × cross-section.
These are the sizes we actually supply — not the complete standard tables. To search directly, enter the inner diameter and cross-section in the size finder to search within a tolerance.

Frequently Asked Questions
About O-ring sizes
How is an O-ring size read?
An O-ring is defined by two dimensions: inner diameter and cross-section. “45 × 3” means an O-ring with a 45 mm inner diameter and a 3 mm cross-section. The outer diameter is not measured separately; it is inner diameter + 2 × cross-section — 51 mm in this example.
What do the cross-section series in the chart mean?
O-rings are grouped into series by cross-section. Decimal values such as 1.78 · 2.62 · 3.53 · 5.33 · 6.99 mm come from the inch-based AS568 standard. Whole numbers such as 2 · 3 · 4 · 5 · 6 mm are metric (DIN 3771 / ISO 3601) series. The value you get when measuring your part's cross-section largely tells you which system it comes from.
What if my size is not in the chart?
This chart shows the sizes we actually supply. Contact us for sizes that are not listed; for non-standard sizes we can consider making them from cord on site or sourcing them specially.
Which material should I choose?
The fluid the seal is in contact with determines the material. NBR is chosen for mineral-oil and hydraulic-oil systems, Viton (FKM) for high temperatures and aggressive chemicals, EPDM for water and steam, and silicone for static applications that need food compatibility. EPDM must not be used with mineral oil.
What is the difference between 70, 75 and 90 Shore?
The Shore value is the hardness of the elastomer. 70 Shore is the general-purpose standard and fills surface irregularities well. 90 Shore resists extrusion into the clearance gap at high pressure but needs a better surface finish. 75 Shore is a common intermediate hardness for Viton seals.
Couldn't find your size?
Send us the inner diameter, cross-section and fluid, and we'll reply with a suitable material and size. For a detailed explanation of O-ring selection see our O-ring size and material guide, and for the product group see the O-rings category.
