British Standard O-Rings are very similar to Standard O-Rings in the fact that they are both standardized imperically. The British Standard however, incorporates some extended sizes in the 1/4" nominal cross section group for an even broader application range. British Standard O-Rings serve a variety of industries including aerospace, paint, food, and chemical transport. Neoprene is also known as Chloroprene.

Neoprene resists fats, oils and petroleum products. Stands up well in sunlight. Low flammability - burns when exposed to flames, but self-extinguishes when flame is removed. Generally good ozone, aging and chemical resistance. It has good mechanical properties over a wide temperature range.
