VULCANISED FIBRE WASHERS 1" X 1/2" X 1.5MM ANY QUANTITY - IMMEDIATE DESPATCH - OTHER SIZES MADE ON REQUEST Washers are generally used for sealing, spacing and distributing the weight of a threaded fastener. Washers can be manufactured to a high degree of accuracy in almost all non-metallic materials. Also sometimes referred to as spacers, packers or buffers, washers provide numerous fastening solutions to various industrial sectors. Traditionally used within the plumbing industry, washers have since been used not only to solve leakage problems by creating a seal, but more commonly in preventing abrasion and corrosion in construction, lighting, electrical and architectural industries. Buffers are becoming increasingly more popular with aiding in shock absorption and anti vibration applications; whilst spacers and packers are being used in between glass and metal to help prevent chaffing and spread weight distribution evenly. Typical materials that we manufacture our range of washers from include vulcanised fibre washers, leather washers, polythene washers, rubber washers, EPDM washers, foam washers, silicone washers, PTFE washers, viton washers, neoprene washers, non asbestos washers, felt washers, nitrile washers, presspahn washers, nylon washers, cork washers, HDPE washers, self adhesive backed sponge washers, Klingersil washers, Novus washers, and acetal washers to name just a few. Materials can be self adhesive backed with a variety of different acrylic tapes, or even laminated to form composites if required.
