NYLON WASHER - Lisle

The Lisle 68600 Nylon Washer is a professional-grade fastening component engineered for demanding automotive and industrial applications. This essential washer provides a durable, non-conductive, and corrosion-resistant interface, offering superior performance compared to traditional metallic washers. It is designed to distribute fastener loads evenly, protect surfaces, and dampen vibrations in critical assemblies.

Key Features

• Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: Constructed from high-quality nylon, this washer withstands exposure to various automotive fluids, oils, solvents, acids, and harsh environmental conditions, preventing degradation and maintaining structural integrity.
• Vibration and Noise Dampening: The inherent material properties of nylon help to absorb shock and reduce vibration and noise, contributing to quieter operation and protecting components from wear in dynamic assemblies.
• Electrical Insulation: As a non-conductive material, the nylon washer provides effective electrical insulation between components, preventing short circuits and safeguarding electrical systems in applications where isolation is critical.
• Surface Protection: Designed to prevent marring and wear on contact surfaces, these washers cushion the area between fasteners and materials, preserving the integrity and finish of delicate or painted components.
• Durability and Longevity: Nylon offers long-lasting strength and resilience, performing reliably in high-temperature environments and under mechanical stress, which extends the lifespan of the assemblies it's used within.
• Lightweight Construction: The lightweight nature of nylon contributes to overall assembly efficiency and, in some automotive applications, can help reduce vehicle weight, potentially improving fuel efficiency.

Applications

The Lisle 68600 Nylon Washer is highly versatile for professional technicians and mechanics across numerous repair and assembly tasks. Common applications include:

• Automotive: Found in engine compartments, brake systems, exhaust systems, and airbag systems, where they prevent leaks, hold bolts in place, and distribute pressure. They are also ideal for securing interior trim, dashboards, and panel fasteners, where vibration dampening and non-marking surfaces are beneficial.
• Industrial: Used in various mechanical assemblies for load distribution, spacing, and insulation, particularly in environments requiring chemical resistance or electrical isolation.
• General Fastening: Provides a protective barrier in any application where a metal-to-metal contact needs to be avoided, or where insulation and vibration resistance are paramount.
