BAUER COUPLING WASHER
Specifications:
- Material: Typically made of EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber, NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber), or PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) depending on the application requirements (e.g., chemical resistance, high temperatures, etc.).
- Size Range: Available in various sizes, generally matching the sizes of Bauer Couplings (ranging from 1″ to 12″ or larger, depending on application).
- Pressure Rating: Bauer coupling washers are used for connections that are rated for high-pressure systems, generally up to 10 bar (145 PSI) or more, depending on the fitting.
- Temperature Range: Typically suitable for use in temperatures ranging from -30°C to +120°C (-22°F to 248°F), but specific washers made from different materials can withstand higher or lower temperatures.
- Seal Type: Designed to provide a tight, leak-proof seal between Bauer Couplings to prevent leakage during operation.
- Compliance: Generally conforming to international standards such as ISO, DIN, or EN, depending on the specific industry and application.
Classification:
- Type: Bauer Coupling Washer
- Function: Used in conjunction with Bauer Couplings to provide a reliable and secure connection, typically in fluid transport systems.
- Application: Ideal for use in agriculture, irrigation systems, construction, mining, chemical plants, and water treatment plants where Bauer couplings are commonly used.
- Pressure Rating: Can be used for high-pressure fluid and gas systems where secure, leak-proof connections are essential.
- Material Type: EPDM, NBR, PTFE, depending on the environmental conditions (e.g., exposure to chemicals, UV, water, etc.).
Description:
The Bauer Coupling Washer is a crucial component used in conjunction with Bauer Couplings for securely sealing connections in pipelines, hoses, or other equipment. These washers are designed to fit into the groove of the Bauer coupling and provide a leak-proof seal when the coupling is tightened. The washer material is selected based on the application’s specific needs, including chemical resistance, durability, and temperature resilience.
Bauer Couplings are commonly used in industries such as agriculture, construction, mining, water treatment, and irrigation, and the washer plays a key role in ensuring that the coupling remains secure and resistant to leaks. The washer is installed between the coupling and the pipe or hose, and its purpose is to provide a compressive seal that prevents the escape of fluids or gases under pressure.
These washers come in various materials and sizes, tailored to the specific Bauer coupling type and the requirements of the application. For example, EPDM washers are often used in applications that require resistance to water, steam, or mild chemicals, while PTFE washers are used for high-temperature or aggressive chemical environments.
Advantages:
- Leak-Proof Sealing: Ensures that connections between Bauer couplings are sealed tightly and securely, even under high pressure.
- Durable Materials: Available in a variety of materials (such as EPDM, PTFE, and NBR), these washers are designed to offer long-lasting performance in demanding environments.
- Versatile Applications: Widely used in industrial applications such as agriculture, mining, and construction where reliable, fast connections are needed.
