Drawing-based components

PTFE Washers

PTFE washers with custom bore, outside diameter and thickness for insulation, spacing and sliding contact. Define the fastener fit and supported load.

  • Concentric or drawing-based flat profiles
  • Bore and thickness selected for assembly clearance
  • Electrical and bearing duties kept distinct

Give the bore its own tolerance

The fastener or shaft determines the washer bore. A loose clearance hole and a locating bore have different fit requirements, even when the outer profile is identical.

Specify thickness where it controls an assembly gap. For stacked washers, define the total stack requirement as well as the nominal thickness of each piece.

Separate insulation from bearing duty

Unfilled PTFE is a starting point for an insulating washer. Conductive filled compounds must be assessed separately when electrical isolation matters.

PTFE can deform under sustained clamping. Provide the loading arrangement and the supporting face so a spacing or sliding washer is evaluated in its assembled condition.

Specific answers

Ordering Questions

Are these spring or locking washers?

No. These are polymer components for defined spacing, insulation or contact duties. They do not provide a metal spring-washer locking function.

Can the bore be offset?

Yes. Define the hole position from drawing datums rather than describing the part as a concentric washer.
