What Are Washers Made to Order?

“Washers made to order” are non-standard washers custom-manufactured to match your unique size, material, shape, and tolerance requirements. Unlike off-the-shelf options, these parts are designed to fit your application perfectly – without compromise.

What You Can Customise

  • Inner Diameter
  • Outer Diameter
  • Thickness
  • Material
  • Shape or Profile
  • Quantity and Packaging
  • Finish or Coating
From slotted and shim washers to fibre, PTFE, Inconel or copper variations, we create tailored solutions to suit performance-critical applications.

Benefits of Washers Made to Order

1. Built for Perfect Fit

Get washers designed precisely for your assembly. Eliminate issues with misfit, overloading, or tolerance errors.

2. Material Flexibility

Choose the ideal material for your operating environment:

  • Stainless Steel, Aluminium, Brass.
  • PTFE, Nylon, Fibre.
  • Inconel, Monel, Titanium.
  • Rubber, Cork, Composites.

3. Custom Shapes and Profiles

Whether you need bevelled, tabbed, slotted, shim, or wave washers – we can manufacture to your drawing, CAD file or sketch.

4. Improved Reliability and Longevity

Fit-for-purpose washers reduce rework, lower risk of failure, and extend equipment lifespan.

5. Prototyping and Low MOQ

Need one-off washers for development or testing? We offer:

  • No minimum order quantities.
  • Fast turnaround on samples.
  • Full-scale production capability.

6. Traceability and Compliance

Available with:

  • Full certification (EN 10204 3.1/3.2).
  • RoHS, REACH, FDA compliance where needed.
  • Laser marking or batch traceability.

Applications of Custom Washers

Washers made to order are essential across industries where high accuracy, durability, or regulatory compliance are required.

1. Automotive and Motorsport
  • Engine sealing and vibration damping.
  • High-performance braking systems.
  • Lightweight aluminium or copper washers for heat transfer.
2. Aerospace and Defence
  • Titanium and Inconel washers for extreme heat and corrosion resistance.
  • Custom profiles for safety-critical fasteners.
3. Oil, Gas, and Petrochemical
  • PTFE, Monel, and Viton washers for high-pressure flange sealing.
  • Resistance to acids, heat, and volatile chemicals.
4. Electronics and Electrical
  • Nylon and fibre washers for insulation and spacing.
  • Brass for grounding and conductivity.
5. Pharmaceutical and Medical
  • Stainless steel and PTFE for hygienic and sterile environments.
  • FDA-compliant materials for cleanroom and dosing equipment.
6. Water Treatment and Marine
  • Marine-grade stainless or rubber for sealing submerged junctions.
  • Resists corrosion and saltwater degradation.
