Bonded Seals
WASHER SPECIFICATIONS
The bonded seal is a rectangular section, metal washer, with a trapezoidal shaped ring of
vulcanised rubber bonded to the inside.
Both the washer and the material can be selected to suit a given application.
The seal is for use in high pressure environments where copper washers are unsuitable.
An improvement to the
original concept is
the self-centralising bonded
seal that offers additional
benefits. It is available in all
popular sizes and many
other metric sizes.
TORQUE LOADING
Satisfactory
performance of the seal
depends on correct
torque loading during
assembly. The following
table indicates
recommended figures.
For double sealing,
additional torque is
generally required.
