Custom Polyurethane Washers
Washers, Seals and Gaskets are essential to the effectiveness of many engineering processes especially in heavy machinery, motors and other equipment. Urethane washers are often utilized in a variety of industries including: construction, aerospace, electrical, and automotive industries.
Benefits
In comparisons to metal and rubber washers, urethane is often a superior material for washers offering the following benefits:
- Vibration dampening
- Shock absorption
- Flexible at low temperatures
- Abrasion resistant
- Resistant to most chemicals
- Weather and UV resistant
- Tight sealing and cushioning capabilities
- Resistant to becoming brittle
- Ozone resistant
- Cost-effective
Polyurethane Washer & Gasket Customization
At Industrial Screen & Maintenance, we can customize a washer, spacer or gasket to your size specifications, durometer, and color. Our team will work with you on the design discussing a variety of additives that can be included in the formulation of our urethane. ISM has additives to enhance wear, add lubricity, increase UV stabilization, reduce static build-up, or are flame retardant. Our custom cast process is set up for small or large production runs. Additionally, ISM’s full-service machine shop can manufacture any inserts or cores need to complete your custom cast urethane washer.
Polyurethane Material Advantages
