Rubber Washers: A Versatile Sealing Solution

Rubber washers are simple yet effective sealing components with a rectangular cross-section. Often referred to as square-cut, lathe-cut, or square-ring washers, they are widely used across various industries due to their versatility and reliability.

Key Benefits of Washers:

• Customization: Our rubber washers can be tailored to specific needs, offering greater design flexibility than standard O-rings.
• Superior Sealing Performance: They excel in high-pressure environments and provide longer service life compared to O-rings.
• Diverse Applications: Beyond static sealing, they can be used in dynamic applications such as piston and rod seals.
• Precision Manufacturing: Our manufacturing partner ensures precise dimensions and burr-free surfaces.
• Enhanced Sealing Integrity: They effectively fill sealing grooves, minimizing the risk of leakage.

Material Selection for Washers:

The optimal material for a rubber washer depends on the specific application:

• VMQ (Silicone): Ideal for medical, food, and technology industries due to its excellent temperature resistance (-60°C to 225°C).
• FKM (Fluorocarbon): Resistant to harsh chemicals, high temperatures (-26°C to 250°C), and extreme environments.
• NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber): Offers excellent oil resistance, making it suitable for general industry and automotive applications (-40°C to 100°C).
• EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer): Provides outstanding weather, water, and heat resistance, making it ideal for construction, automotive, and industrial applications (-55°C to 125°C).
