Heat resistant to 350°F.

 

ALTERNATE BACKING MATERIALS

ALUMINUM

Provides special alloys that provide similiar longevity to galvanized when low stress or desired deflection requirements exist.

Aluminum minimizes concerns with galvanic corrosion in certain applications.

STAINLESS STEEL (300 SERIES 18/8)

Combines optimum corrosion resistance and economy in a premium quality washer. Used wherever stainless steel fasteners are required or when corrosive environments compromise lesser metals.

 

ALTERNATE FACING MATERIALS AVAILABLE

NEOPRENE

Versatile general duty facing material for sealing and cushioning washers.

Highly resistant to petro chemicals and certain other chemical families.

SILICONE

High performance - economical, working temperature extremes from -115°F to +480°F.
