-
What are aluminium crush washers used for?
Aluminium crush washers are used to create a seal between suitable fluid fittings and their mating surfaces by compressing as the connection is tightened.
-
How do I choose the correct washer size?
Match both the internal diameter and external diameter to the connection and available sealing surface. The available sizes and common compatibility information are shown in the Specifications.
-
Why are some internal diameters available with different external diameters?
Different external diameters allow the washer to be matched to the available sealing surface around the connection. For example, some internal diameters are offered with two different external diameters.
-
How does an aluminium crush washer create a seal?
The aluminium compresses as the connection is tightened, allowing the washer to conform to the mating surfaces.
-
Can aluminium crush washers be reused?
No. Once an aluminium crush washer has been compressed, it should be replaced when the sealed connection is dismantled and reassembled.
-
Are the aluminium crush washers sold individually?
Yes. Each aluminium crush washer is sold individually, so the required size and quantity can be selected for the installation.
