High temp rubber washers
High temp rubber washers are items that find application in industries such as construction, automotive, plumbing, and are often found in home appliances and other devices. Their use is so widespread thanks to its favorable properties and universal application. In case you have not encountered high temp rubber washers so far, let us present you in more detail these small items that can make your life much easier. These are flat rubber circles that have a hole in the middle that allows the flow of various liquids, and can also be used to accommodate fasteners. The main role of high temp rubber washers is to prevent leakage, but also to protect the surrounding surfaces, as well as to absorb vibrations that occur during the operation of the machine or device. It is probably clearer to you now why their application is so widespread – such properties are desirable in pretty much every industry!
Another thing here is that high temp rubber washers are resistant to the effects of extremely high temperatures, which is another common industrial requirement. During the operation of machines, high temperatures develop, so the materials used as their integral part must have properties that ensure that they will not be damaged under the influence of external factors. And not only are rubber washers resistant to high temperatures, but they are also insensitive to corrosion, oxygen, ozone, UV rays, chemicals such as acids and bases, as well as mechanical forces. Because of this, they can not only withstand the effects of vibration, but can also mitigate them and thus extend the life of industrial machines. The good thing about rubber washers is that they can be mixed with a number of other materials during production in order to achieve the desired properties. Call us and let us know what your needs are for high temp rubber washers, and we will make sure you find the perfect product for yourself.
Product specifications
- Product form
- Rubber washer at a clamped joint
- Application focus
- Plumbing connections. Size the part against the selected assembly.
- Dimensions to confirm
- Inside diameter, outside diameter and uncompressed thickness. Match these to plumbing connections.
- Thermal duty
- Define continuous exposure, short peaks and cycle time; establish the usable limit for the selected compound and assembly.
- Contact conditions
- Oxygen, acids and alkalis: define concentration, temperature and contact time, then check compatibility with the chosen compound.
- Exposure to evaluate
- Sunlight or UV and ozone. Validate the selected material under the combined conditions.
- Clamped condition
- Define the assembled gap and compressive load so the washer is not over-compressed.
