What are Washers?
Washers and precision engineered washers are a big part of what we do, but what is one and how does it work? Put simply, they are a small disc or ring which is designed to sit between two parts of a piece of machinery in order to act as a buffer or spacer. They can help to reduce friction, improve seals or to fill spaces between two components. Washers are a piece of precision engineering and having the right measurements can be the difference between a perfect seal and a leaky joint. Precision engineered washers are popular at Stephens Gaskets and are known for their high quality.
Meeting your Needs…
At Stephens Gaskets we have the expertise and are willing to provide advice on the types of materials you may require, based on your needs. For example, if you are looking to reduce vibration, a cork washer may be the best material for that application. If you are looking for a washer which is resistant against water and oil, which is also non-degradable, nitrile material may be best suited. Whether it’s synthetic rubbers, metal or natural cork, it is vital that the right materials are chosen for the right job. We have years of experience in these matters and will gladly provide any technical support you may require.
