ARP 5316 Elastomer Shelf Life Recommendation

The Society of Aerospace Engineers (SAE) issued Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) 5316 was issued in 1998 to supercede MIL-HDBK-695C (canceled) as the aerospace industry standard. ARP 5316 is often used as a guideline in determining useful shelf life of elastomers used in other industries.

  • 5 years: Polyurethane (milleable)
  • 15 years: Nitrile, Neoprene, SBR, HNBR, Polyacrylate
  • Unlimited: Ethylene Propylene, Fluorocarbon, Perfluorinated Elastomer, Butyl, Silicone, Tetrafluoroethylene Propylene (Aflas®), Fluorosilicone.
