Here's a crosswalk using Buddha's data, along with a Word file from another of our SB members from long ago.
As you'll see, I can't find a spec for a BS607, but coincidentally, it matches an old Parker 5-series perfectly.
McMaster has EPDM orings in most of the sizes, but the Shore is only 70.
If you take Viton, you'll get Shore 75, which is closer.
There's only one o-ring which is N/A via McMaster.
I've coded the crosswalk green if the McMaster o-ring manufacturing tolerance covered the spec size on Buddha's list.
It's in yellow if the manufacturing tolerance was slightly smaller or larger than the listed size.
I frankly can't believe that Apeks would spec a standard cross-section like 1.78mm/0.070'', and then use an oddball ID.
My guess is that the list ID's are rounded off. It was the very last o-ring (a BS607) that I can't find in any list, that made me think this way, since it perfectly matches a Parker 5-632.
A shining star, thanks Rob.
