-
How do I install these bonded seals?
Installation is straightforward: place the bonded seal between the fitting and the mating surface, then tighten the fitting to the manufacturer's torque specification. The rubber element will compress to create a tight seal. Ensure all connections are tight and leak-free before pressurising the system.
-
Are these washers reusable?
Bonded seals can be reused if the rubber element remains undamaged and retains its elasticity. However, for critical applications, it is recommended to use a new washer to ensure a perfect seal.
