MILLER COUPLING WASHER
Specifications:
- Material: Typically made from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer), NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber), or Viton for enhanced chemical and temperature resistance. For high-performance applications, PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) may also be used.
- Size Range: Compatible with various sizes of Miller Couplings, generally ranging from 1″ to 12″ (25mm to 300mm) or larger, depending on the coupling.
- Pressure Rating: Miller coupling washers are used in applications with medium to high-pressure systems, typically rated up to 150 PSI or more, depending on the coupling size and application.
- Temperature Range: Suitable for temperatures typically ranging from -30°C to +120°C (-22°F to +248°F), with some materials like Viton offering higher temperature resistance.
- Seal Type: Designed to provide a tight, reliable seal between Miller Couplings, preventing leakage during operation. The seal material is chosen based on the fluids or gases being transported.
- Compliance: Conforms to various industrial standards such as ISO, DIN, ANSI, or other regional standards for couplings and sealing components.
Classification:
- Type: Miller Coupling Washer
- Application: Used in conjunction with Miller Couplings to create a secure and leak-proof connection, commonly used in applications such as agriculture, construction, mining, irrigation, and water treatment systems.
- Pressure Rating: Used in systems with medium to high-pressure fluid or gas transport, typically up to 150 PSI, depending on the coupling and seal material.
- Material Type: EPDM, NBR, Viton, PTFE (varies depending on application).
Description:
The Miller Coupling Washer is an essential sealing component used with Miller Couplings to create a secure, leak-tight connection. Miller couplings are commonly used in fluid transfer and hosing systems, especially in agricultural, industrial, and construction applications. The washer fits within the coupling and forms a seal that prevents the leakage of fluids or gases under pressure.
Miller couplings are widely used for their quick-connect functionality, making them ideal for systems that require rapid disconnection and reconnection. The washer ensures that when the coupling is tightened, the connection between pipes, hoses, or equipment is sealed securely, preventing fluid leakage and ensuring the safe transfer of liquids and gases.
These washers are made from high-performance rubber materials, such as EPDM (for water and steam systems), NBR (for oil-based fluids), and Viton (for high-temperature and aggressive chemical environments). PTFE washers are often used in the most demanding applications where chemical resistance and high-temperature performance are crucial.
Applications:
- Agriculture: Used in irrigation and fluid management systems.
- Construction: For pipe connections and fluid handling.
- Water Treatment: Ensures tight seals for water transfer in treatment plants.
- Mining and Industrial Systems: Used in fluid transfer applications under pressure.
Advantages:
- Leak-Proof Connections: The washer ensures that Miller couplings provide a secure, leak-tight seal.
- Durable Materials: Available in a range of rubber and elastomeric materials to handle different fluids and temperatures.
- Ease of Use: Ideal for quick connections and disconnections, especially in applications requiring frequent assembly and disassembly.
