Product Information

Our PTFE washers come in a variety of shapes, from simple round or square designs to custom designs with several holes and or slots across the flange. For a number of years, metal served as the default material for washers. However, the introduction of durable and reliable plastics, such as Teflon, has led to the acceptance of plastics as a suitable alternative. When used for automobile coatings, it creates a high-gloss layer that protects cars from rust and minor wear.

Absolutely! As a leading PTFE washer UK supplier we have state of the art, automated machinery allowing us to produce custom PTFE washers for our customers. Can you cut PTFE Washers to squares? In contrast to our competitors who use reprocessed material for their washers, at New Process Fibre we use the highest quality virgin Teflon resin available on the market to manufacture our Teflon washers. Washers are available in a variety of different materials to suit varying environmental and operating conditions. Although many industry professionals employ metallic washers, non-metallic washers, such as those made from nylon or PTFE, are becoming increasingly popular. In particular, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)—also known by the brand name Teflon™—offers several advantages when used for the manufacture of washers, including: Greater precision and accuracy. The process is suitable for producing identical parts in high volumes from batch to batch.Low coefficient of friction -the second lowest of any solid material. PTFE is suitable for most moving parts allowing them to glide over surfaces smoothly and with less effort. Suitable for bearings, gears and most sliding parts. Compared to other nonmetallic materials, it is relatively expensive — this is partly because it has some of the most beneficial properties of any nonmetallic material and is as such in high demand.

At New Process Fibre, we maintain over 10,000 dies ranging from .080–10 inches in our in-house manufacturing facility. Combined with our custom tooling capabilities, this quality allows us to produce Teflon washers in virtually any size to meet a customer’s needs. PTFE washers are strong, durable, and have one of the lowest coefficient friction levels of any other solid material. They are also chemically resistant and non-conductive with excellent dielectric properties. Plus, PTFE is an excellent insulator and is FDA-approved. We manufacture PTFE Gaskets from our complete range of Polytetrafluoroethlyene (PTFE) materials. Commonly referred to as Teflon (The well known brand name of The Chemours Company), PTFE has outstanding resistance to chemicals, a wide temperature range, withstanding (–200° C to +260° C) and excellent dielectric properties.Teflon is hydrophobic, meaning it resists mixing with water. Compared to nylon, it has a higher melting and better chemical resistance. These qualities make it suitable for equipment systems regularly exposed to moisture or requiring significant amounts of lubrication. Our flat washers are manufactured to exceptionally high standards and compliant with DIN 125 specification. These can also be used in combination with an array of different material fasteners depending on your application. Available in sizes M3- M12. Its chemical resistance enables washers made from it to remain stable even when exposed to compounds such as road salts and pollution. RH Nuttall Limited produce washers, gaskets, seals, strip and sheet PTFE for a variety of applications. General Characteristics PTFE washers and PTFE gaskets can be supplied not only in its virgin state, but also with carbon and/or glass inserted into it leaving the finished product more durable and able to withstand even higher temperatures.
