I'm getting ready to rebuild the hydraulic lift and power steering assist assemblies on my IH 354 and am confused about some o-ring descriptions in my parts book.
Here is a typical book entry:
352 221 R1 "O" RING, 9/16" x 3/4" x 3/32" (class 6)
I understand the sizing alright, but what is "class 6"? Is it o-ring material? I expect most of the seals in these assemblies are buna-n (nitrile). I don't want to pay many dollars for single o-rings that should cost a few cents unless it is necessary for the specific application.
How do I find dimensions for o-rings that are called out by part number without the description? It would be easier to have dimensions than to measure grooves and old o-rings to come up with a fit. It's not hard, but I could have the seals purchased and on hand before the disassembly begins.
Thanks for your insight!

Let’s examine the purpose and design of these fasteners in order to ensure their proper use. Fasteners are probably one of the aspects of mechanics that is given the least amount of thought.
