What are bonded seal Dowty washers used for?
Bonded seals are used to create a seal between suitable fluid fittings and their mating surfaces. The bonded rubber element forms the seal while the metal outer ring provides support.
-
What is a Dowty washer?
A Dowty washer is a bonded seal consisting of a metal outer ring with a bonded rubber sealing element. The rubber compresses against the mating surfaces while the metal ring supports and controls the compression of the seal.
-
How do I choose the correct bonded seal size?
Select the internal diameter according to the fitting and sealing surface being used. The available sizes and common compatibility information are shown in the Specifications.
-
How is a bonded seal installed?
Position the bonded seal between the fitting and its mating surface, then tighten the connection to the appropriate specification for the application. The rubber sealing element compresses to form the seal.
-
Can bonded seal Dowty washers be reused?
They may be reused only if the rubber sealing element remains undamaged, flexible and securely bonded to the metal ring. Replace the washer if the rubber is cut, hardened, distorted or otherwise damaged.
-
Are the bonded seals sold individually?
Yes. Each bonded seal is sold individually, so the required size and quantity can be selected for the installation.
