Chemical Compatibility
Chemical compatibility ratings for elastomers and engineering materials exposed to various chemicals — resistance grades from A (excellent) to D (not recommended), plus X (insufficient data)
Use the O-Ring Groove Calculator
Run your specific case through the calculator below — it applies the relevant criteria automatically and returns the answer with the design check, instead of requiring a manual table lookup.
- Open the O-Ring Groove Calculator (link below).
- Enter your project parameters that relate to chemical compatibility.
- The calculator applies the ['Burkert Chemical Resistance Chart (manufacturer testing; m criteria automatically — no manual lookup needed.
- Review the calculator output, which typically includes the same values you'd find in a reference table plus the design check.
