Seal washers are commonly used in industrial equipment and automotive applications. They are reusable and resistant to a temperature of -75C to +205C.
Vented Washers are used with vented screws to aid the quick release of gases from blind tapped holes. The washers are common for HV and UHV systems because their slot vent feature reduces virtual leakage from high vacuum systems.
This range of Captive Washers has a very shallow thread on the inside diameter. This means they can be screwed on, and once past the threads they will not separate from the captive screw or bolt.
How to install a captive screw and washer assembly;
1) Place the captive screw into the panel hole.
2) Thread the washer on to the screw, beyond the threaded part of the screw, which retains the screw in the panel.
The washers are made from Stainless Steel that provides good resistance to corrosion and machinability. The material is a popular choice for construction and automotive applications.
Self-centring Bonded Washers are commonly used where hydraulic fluids and pneumatic oils are prevalent. They are an ideal option for maintenance, repair and operation applications.
Nitrile Washers are typically used with screws and bolts. The washer is made from steel and comes with a rubber O-ring seal that fits within the inside diameter of the washer. This washer and seal combination helps ensure a watertight assembly for your application.
Customers have the option to purchase a kit that contains a selection of size options that are suitable for BSP or Metric threads. This ensures quick and easy access to suitable sizes. Alternatively customers can purchase individual parts, in the thread type and specific size required.
Finishing Washers provide protection for cabinets and other applications from scratching and other damage that may occur. They also provide cover for misaligned holes that means the finished appearance of your assembly will be neat and tidy.

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.
Rubber Washers for sale at Essentra Components. Designed for use with screws, bolts and nuts - flat washers rubber are an essential component in any fastener assembly. Also known as plain washers, they are the most commonly used washer type. Flat washers do not have a locking function, but instead are applied as protection for mating surfaces, from damage. Our rubber washers, which are often used by manufactures for spacing, buffing, sealing and for locking purposes, provide ideal support to threaded fasteners, particularly in the construction industry. These durable flat rubber washers have excellent anti-vibration and shock absorbing properties, whilst also helping to seal fluids and other liquid connections - and offer superior insulation, particularly within electronic assemblies.
The range includes a Thermoplastic Rubber Washer (TPR) that has improved chemical resistance, sealing characteristics and vibration resistance. These are a great solution for oil, gas and automotive industries. These flat rubbers are manufactured to DIN 125 standard. They also benefit from flame resistance to UL94 HB standard.
We also offer a flat washer made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), which has high stiffness and fantastic electrical properties - making it ideal for use in a range of electrical assembly applications. This PVC washer provides abrasion and moisture resistance.
Round Cup Washers are ofter used for covering large holes, like pipe and tube ends. They are shaped like a cup or bowl and often have a flanged area beneath the head - useful for evenly distributing a load over a surface area.
It insulates the head of a metal screw from electrical currents or other conductive materials. It is resistant to corrosion, oil and other chemicals. It can be used with most screw head styles such as cheese, pan and fillister.
Lock and seal nuts and bolts in position.
Retaining Rings act like a shoulder, which holds components and assemblies in place on a smooth shaft and can also be used in a housing or bore for one-time uses. Popular applications include retaining shafts.
They are installed into pre-manufactured grooves on axles and pins, creating a shoulder function and retaining the specified component or assembly. The ring design features a lip for easy assembly and dismantling.
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.
Our Plastic Saddle Washers range consists of Nylon Saddle Washers.
