Durometer is the hardness of the rubber.

Lower the softer and easier it is to seal. You only need the 80+ if you are using high pressure and high temps. I have used a lot in the 40-50 which is harder to come by.

Here is the link for Parker O-rings handbook. It has engineering data for design/machining.
