Product Information

Full details

The Workshop Warehouse AB25N fibre washer set is designed for mechanics, engineers, and DIY enthusiasts who require reliable, airtight seals in mechanical assemblies. These washers provide excellent electrical insulation and effective sealing by compressing under load, making them ideal for automotive and agricultural repair projects. While they are highly versatile for various hardware tasks, users should note that these fibre washers are intended for single-use applications as they lose their sealing integrity once removed and recompressed.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I reuse these fibre washers?

No, these washers are designed to compress to form a seal and should be replaced with a new one every time the fastener is removed.

Are these washers resistant to oil and fuel?

They are generally suitable for use with oil and fuel in standard applications, but they should not be submerged in chemicals for extended periods.

What are the specific size ranges included?

The set includes eight sizes ranging from 13/64 inch to 49/64 inch inner diameters.

Are these suitable for high-pressure hydraulic lines?

No, fibre washers are intended for general mechanical and low-pressure sealing tasks, not high-pressure hydraulics.

Do I need to apply any sealant with these washers?

Generally, no. The fibre material is designed to create a seal on its own through compression.

Troubleshooting

The washer is leaking after installation.

Ensure the mating surface is smooth and free of debris. If the leak persists, verify the bolt is tightened sufficiently to compress the washer material.

Washer is difficult to fit over the bolt.

Check that you have selected the correct size from the range provided. Do not force a smaller washer onto a larger bolt as it may compromise the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extensive variety of sizes in one kit
  • Excellent electrical insulation properties
  • Convenient storage case prevents part mixing
  • Effective at preventing leaks in low-to-medium pressure applications

Cons

  • Designed for single-use only
  • Not suitable for high-pressure hydraulic systems
  • Fibre material may degrade if exposed to extreme moisture over long periods

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a proper seal, verify that the mating surfaces are clean, flat, and free of burrs or debris before installation. Select the washer with the closest inner diameter to your bolt or fastener to ensure a snug fit. Tighten the fastener until the washer compresses sufficiently; avoid over-tightening as excessive force can cause the fibre material to split. Store the container in a cool, dry place to prevent the material from absorbing ambient humidity, which could cause the washers to swell or lose their mechanical properties over time.
