What is AS568 in O-ring?
AS568 is the Aerospace Size Standard for O-rings from the Society of Automotive Engineers. SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) specifies the inside diameters, cross-sections, tolerances, and size identification codes (dash numbers) for O-rings used in sealing applications and for straight thread tube fitting boss gaskets.
What is CS in O-ring size?
The best way to size an o-ring is by measuring the CS (cross-section) and ID (inside diameter). For measuring the cross-section, it is best to use a caliper, a.k.a. micrometer.

How do you read O-ring sizes?
Measurement Formulas:
- Outside Diameter (OD) = Inside Diameter + (2 x Cross Section).
- Inside Diameter (ID) = OD – (2 x CS).
- Cross Section (CS) = OD – ID, ÷ 2.

What size are O rings?
The standard sizes used by Parco and the other major O-ring manufacturers in the United States are defined by Aerospace Standard AS568. There are 369 standard sizes of O-rings with inside diameters ranging from 0.029 to 25.940 inches and cross sections ranging from 0.040 to 0.275 inch.
How are O rings sized?
O-rings are measured in millimeters. Place the O-ring on a clean, flat, level surface. Determine the inside diameter. Use a ruler or calipers to measure from one inner edge to another. To measure the outside diameter, use a ruler or calipers to measure from one outer corner of the O-ring to the other outer corner. Measure cross section. Place the O-ring into a vernier caliper.
What are the dimensions of a ring?
The most common ring sizes for women are 6 (16.5 mm), 6.5 (16.9 mm), and 7 (17.3 mm). For men, the most common sizes are 10 (19.8 mm), 10.5 (20.2 mm), and 11 (20.6 mm).
What is the measurement of a ring?
