Material Specifications
Part 3

Other Specifications

Other standards exist for the purpose of classifying and specifying elastomers for specific applications or environments. Among these standards are the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), and many governmental agencies, including the military. SAE J120a “Rubber Rings for Automotive Applications” is a recommended practice for the design and specification for static and dynamic, 70 Shore A hardness seals. Materials are classified and may be marked as:

  • Class I— Oil-resistant service (yellow-colored stripe), or,
  • Class II— Gasoline-resistant service (red-colored stripe)

The following table highlights several key Aerospace Material Specifications (AMS), Military (MIL), and National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) standards. These standards cover a wide range of sealing applications and materials. Many of these standards require independent or accredited laboratory certification of the materials. In some instances, Underwriter’s Laboratory (UL) approval is required.

Certain semiconductor equipment manufacturers and wafer fabrication companies have begun to express an interest in developing relevant specifications for the semiconductor industry. A possible forum for this effort may come through the Standards Committee of the Semiconductor and Equipment Materials International (SEMI).
