Product Information

Washers of standard metric sizes equivalent to BS4320 Form A are listed in the table below. Measurements in the table refer to the dimensions of the washers as described by the drawing. Specifications for standard metric flat washers were known as DIN 125 (withdrawn) and replaced with ISO 7089. DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung - German Institute for Standardization) standards are issued for a variety of components including industrial fasteners as Metric DIN 125 Flat Washers. The DIN standards remain common in Germany, Europe and globally even though the transition to ISO standards is taking place. DIN standards continue to be used for parts which do not have ISO equivalents or for which there is no need for standardization. [28] Nominal screw Browning or bluing – Exposing the washer (typically steel) to a chemical compound or alkali salt solution causes an oxidizing chemical reaction, which results in the creation of a corrosion-resistant, colored surface. The integrity of the coating can be improved by treating the finished product with a water-displacing oil. Fasteners such as screws and bolts hold components of instruments together. However, they can sometimes put too much pressure on the fastening object. Plumbing fixtures – Crush washers make leak-free connections between pipes and valves, ensuring tight fittings.

A crush washer may sound like an unusual item, but it is one of the essential components in industries that require a fastening mechanism. It is a specialized type of washer commonly used in the automotive and plumbing industries. A crush washer is constructed with a material that is softer than the material being fastened. It is fitted between the two metal surfaces and is compressed to create a watertight or airtight seal. It prevents leakage and ensures uniform compression and a stable joint. In this blog, let’s explore this small but crucial component, its uses and applications. What is Crush Washer? What makes them misused is these are supposed to be one-time-use items. You can maybe get away with reusing them once, if you're careful; but after that, the washer gets work hardened and doesn't deform anymore. The usual response to this is to crank down on whatever it's sealing to try to stop the leak. In the case of the oil drain plug, this usually results in stripping out the threads in the oil pan.a b "Fastener Design Manual" (PDF). NASA. 1990. pp.9–10. Archived from the original (PDF) on 15 May 2010. You never get all the old oil out of your engine on a standard oil & filter change..., so you must accept that there is going to be a small amount of old oil mixing with your new oil. Suzuki say "2.3L without filter, 2.7L with filter, 3.1 Litres after overhaul" for the wee. Screws : Screws are the fasteners that create their threads while fastening into the material. They normally have a head and a shank with helical threads. They come in a variety of head styles and recess or drive styles. We’ve said that washers work with fasteners to spread the load and prevent leakage. So let’s consider some of the types of fasteners that require the work of washers. Types Of Fasteners That Use Washers A type of washer used in a variety of torque sensitive applications, designed to limit torque to a predetermined level and not beyond.

A flat washer with a particularly large outer diameter in proportion to its central hole. These are commonly used to spread the load on thin sheet metal, and are named after their use on automobile fenders. They can also be used to make a connection to a hole that has been enlarged by rust or wear. In the UK, the name originally comes from the size of the old British penny. In the UK, most industries refer to all large OD washers as penny washers, even when the OD is as much as twice the size of the old penny. Anchor fasteners : Anchor fasteners connect structural and non-structural elements to concrete or other materials in the building industry. These fasteners take a position by drilling a hole larger than the fastener diameter in the base material. John Holloway (2010). Illustrated Theatre Production Guide. Focal Press. p.202. ISBN 9780240812045. A number of techniques are used to enhance the corrosion resistant properties of certain washer materials:Bolt : A bolt is a threaded fastener that always accompanies a nut. A bolt comprises a head, cylindrical body, and threads along its length. Parmley, Robert. (2000). "Section 11: Washers." Illustrated Sourcebook of Mechanical Components. New York: McGraw Hill. ISBN 0070486174 Drawings, designs and discussion of various uses of washers.

Electroplating – This method involves coating the washer by electrolytic deposition using metals such as chromium or silver. Nylon Spacers And Washers - New Process Fibre". New Process Fibre Company, Inc . Retrieved 2016-02-11. Crush washers are available in various designs, shapes and materials based on their applications. Copper crush washers are most commonly used in the automotive and plumbing industries, whereas aluminium, brass and stainless steel crush washers are used in various applications, including aerospace, marine, and industrial equipment. These washers have similar properties but differ in cost, corrosion resistance and durability. Applications of Crush Washers Spring washers offer axial load to fasteners to reduce movement when there’s vibration or thermal expansion. Spring washers are made of metal.The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) provides standards for general use flat washers. Type A is a series of steel washers at broad tolerances, where precision is not critical. Type B is a series of flat washers with tighter tolerances where outside diameters are categorized as "narrow", "regular" or "wide" for specific bolt sizes. [27] Crush washers are soft metal fasteners composed of aluminum or copper. They seal fluid or gas connections in internal combustion engines and hydraulic systems. Plain washers, which spread a load, and prevent damage to the surface being fixed, or provide some sort of insulation such as electrical Rubber or fiber gaskets are washers used to prevent water leaks in taps. They’re not the traditional machine fasteners, and while they may look similar, washers and gaskets have different designs and functions.

To appreciate what crush washers are, we’ll need to understand the concept of washers in general. So, what are washers? What Are Washers? Thin plate with a hole, normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener Assorted washers: flat, split, star and insulating

Countersunk washers : Countersunk washers make installing flat or oval head countersunk screws flush with the part surface. They’re commonly found in consumer products like cabinets and furniture.
