Military Specification O-Rings need only NSN (National Stock Number) or the Military specification Prefix, plus the AS568 dash number (size).  No other description is needed to assure exact conformance to the specification. Certification and cure dates are automatically sent when required.

     AN (army navy),
     MS (military specification),
     NAS (national aerospace standard)
     AS (aerospace) numbers

Compounds are approved to nearly every military, aerospace, ASTM, SAE, automotive, petroleum industry and commercial specification. The most widely used specifications are the AN, M, MS and NAS specifications. This reference table is arranged by drawing number.
