These rectangular section sealing rings are made of a plastic that looks like a Teflon or PTFE that is filled with something. I made some out of virgin PTFE and they are softer than the originals. The original rings are an off white light cream color, not the pure white of PTFE or Teflon. The original ones are also about twice the stiffness in bending than the PTFE ones that I made. This is for an air pump piston in which the piston is 1.250" Ø.
I would like some ideas on what the original material could have been. Thanks for looking.
