- AMS 3204: Spec covers a silicone rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- Primarily for parts required to operate or seal from -65 to +205 °C (-85 to +401 °F degrees)
- Resistant to deterioration by weathering and petroleum-based lubricating oil, and remains flexible over the temperature range noted
- Not normally suitable for use in contact with gasoline or aromatic fuels and low-aniline-point petroleum-base fluids due to excessive swelling of the elastomer
- AMS 3207: Spec covers a chloroprene (CR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, and molded shapes
- AMS 3212: Spec covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3213: Spec covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- Primarily for parts, such as gaskets, diaphragms, bushings, grommets, and sleeves, requiring resistance to aromatic and aliphatic fuels when continuously or alternately exposed to both
- AMS 3214: Spec covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes; fuel-resistant
- AMS 3215: Spec covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- Primarily for parts, such as gaskets, diaphragms, bushings, grommets, and sleeves, requiring resistance to aromatic and aliphatic fuels when continuously or alternately exposed to both
- AMS 3220: Spec covers a synthetic rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3222: Spec covers a synthetic rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3227: Spec covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes. Primarily for hose, packings, bushings, grommets, and seals in contact with hot, petroleum-based lubricating oils and glycol-type coolants from -40 degrees to +100 °C (-40 degrees to +212 °F).
- AMS 3238: Spec covers a butyl (IIR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3241: This specification covers a chloroprene (CR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- Product typically used for parts, such as window channels, bumper pads, chafing strips, and seals, requiring resistance to weather
- Also commonly used for applications from -40 to +100 °C (-40 to +212 °F), but usage is not limited to such applications
- AMS 3260: Spec covers an ethylene propylene (EPDM) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- Fair resistance to all materials listed; where better resistance to a particular fluid is required, use an AMS compounded specifically for good resistance to that fluid
- Product typically used for parts, such as door seals, low-pressure gaskets, dust covers, and shock absorption devices
- Additionally, products requiring resistance to weathering, phosphate ester base hydraulic fluids, and polar solvents such as steam, water, and ketones
- Usage is not limited to these applications
- AMS 3301: Spec covers a silicone rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3302: Spec covers a silicone rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3303: Spec covers a silicone rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- AMS 3304: Spec covers a silicone rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes
- Primarily for parts required to operate or seal from -65 to +205 °C (-85 to +401 °F)
- Silicone elastomer is resistant to deterioration by weathering and petroleum-based lubricating oil and remains flexible over the temperature range noted
- These products are not normally suitable for use in contact with gasoline or aromatic fuels and low-aniline-point petroleum-based fluids due to excessive swelling of the elastomer
