TECHNICAL BULLETIN
EVERSEAL SEALING WASHERS

Type of Washer
Composite if metal/rubber heat bonded and formed into round convex washer.

Type of Material
1.    Galvanized: Stainless; Aluminum
2.    Rubber - Blended combination of EPDM

Recommended Usage
Primary use is to seal and prevent leakage on assembled fasteners.  Also acts as a cushionary, non-abrasive agent against assembled parts.  May also be used to dampen vibration to surrounding fixtures.
