Question: What is the difference between a spacer and a washer?
Answer: Washers are primarily used to distribute pressure and prevent damage to surfaces when fasteners are tightened.
Spacers are used to create a specific distance between two components. They often have more precise dimensions and tolerances than washers.
Question: What materials are spacers and washers made of?
Answer: Spacers and washers come in various materials, including:
• Metal: Steel, stainless steel, aluminum, brass.
• Plastic: Nylon, PTFE (Teflon), PVC.
• Rubber: Neoprene, silicone, or other flexible materials for vibration damping or sealing.
• Ceramic and composites are used in specific applications that require heat or chemical resistance.
Question: How do I choose the right size of spacer or washer?
Answer: • Inner Diameter (ID): The hole size should match the bolt or shaft it’s used with.
• Outer Diameter (OD): Choose based on the load distribution required.
• Thickness (for washers) or Length (for spacers): Depends on the gap or spacing needed in your assembly.
For precision requirements, check the manufacturer’s specifications.
Question: What factors should I consider when choosing a material for a spacer or washer?
Answer: Strength and durability: The material should be able to withstand the loads and conditions of the application.
• Corrosion resistance: If the spacer or washer will be exposed to corrosive environments, a corrosion-resistant material should be used.
• Electrical conductivity: If electrical conductivity is important, a conductive material should be used.
• Thermal conductivity: If thermal conductivity is important, a thermally conductive material should be used.
Question: What are the common finishes for spacers and washers?
Answer: • Zinc plating: Provides corrosion resistance.
• Cadmium plating: Provides excellent corrosion resistance but is often avoided due to environmental concerns.
• Nickel plating: Provides good corrosion resistance and a smooth finish.
• Black oxide finish: Provides a dark, protective finish.
