Polyamide Washers

Flat Washers made from a variety of plastics. Also known as plain washers, these flat plastic washers are among the most commonly used. The plastic washer helps evenly distribute the load of a fastener, such as a nut, whilst helping to reduce heat and friction during the process of tightening.

Our wide range features a vast array of sizes, including large diameter plastic washers that are suitable for a number of metric threads. We also offer a choice of materials, including Nylon washers and other plastic washers made from Polycarbonate (PC), Polypropylene (PP) and Polyoxymethylene (POM). As well as high-quality, hard plastic washers like Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK). All with a durable, smooth finish.

• Insulates against moisture and electricity
• Resistant to corrosion, abrasion and most chemicals
• Provides full insulation, cushioning and spacing
• Colours: Natural, Black and Brown.

Lock and seal nuts and bolts in position.

A Plastic Retaining Washer is primarily used to hold screws and bolts in place during assembly and have a design that grips the outside of screw or bolt shank. Also known as an Anti Loss Washer, they provide insulation, cushioning and spacing. They help insulate fastening assemblies from moisture and electricity.

This washer range includes options with internal and external teeth with a tapered design. The washer easily slides on to the screw (or bolt) and is retained by the screw once assembled. The washer cold forms and fully enters the pitch of the screw to provide sealing.

These washers allow for preliminary mounting of the screw (or bolt) before securing with a nut. They are ideal when pre-assembly of the screw and washer is required. They also help reduce assembly time and cost.

The range includes material options that provide corrosion, abrasion and chemical resistance.

• Materials: Polycarbonate (PC), Polyamide 6.6 (PA) and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
• Colour: Natural

Shoulder Washers, also known as Insulation Sleeves or Shoulder Bushes, are designed to provide electric and heat insulation for assemblies where this is a fundamental requirement. A type of stepped washer, they are made from a variety of materials and colours, these products are self lubrication, corrosion and abrasion resistant.

The step washer offering features shoulder bushes made from Nylon 6/6, These nylon sleeve washers are a self-lubricating option, great for anything that pivots or rotates. The are low coefficient of friction, and resistant of moisture, dirt and most chemicals. We also have a countersunk sleeve that is frequently applied in electro technical environments, and is compulsory by law in many countries. It prevents electrical corrosion with countersunk head screws.

Perhaps our wide selection of Insulation Sleeves is more suitable for your project needs? Made from a choice of natural Nylon 6 or black Nylon with a glass-fibre compound; these sleeves prevent contact with conducting materials, prevent parts from vibrating loose, and accurately locate and space assemblies.

Our nylon shouldered washers range extends with a selection of Locking and Sealing Washers. Locking and sealing types are sold separately. Screw Insulators available in a range of sizes, as well as high temperature options. The high temperature insulators also have options made from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS). Or just keep it simple and browse our wide range of shoulder washer and insulating washers, that have flame resistance to a UL94 V2 standard.
