ELKO-BIS 14mm EPDM Washer for Farmer Screws
The ELKO-BIS 14mm EPDM washer is a high-quality sealing component specifically engineered for use with farmer screws in roofing and facade construction. This washer features a durable EPDM rubber seal bonded to a metal backing, providing a reliable barrier against moisture, dust, and environmental elements. It is designed to maintain its elasticity over time, ensuring that the connection remains watertight and secure even under varying weather conditions.
The primary advantage of this washer is its superior sealing capability provided by the EPDM material, which is highly resistant to UV radiation, ozone, and extreme temperature fluctuations. By distributing pressure evenly across the surface, the washer prevents mechanical damage to the metal sheets during installation and helps to mitigate the risk of corrosion at the screw entry point. Its robust construction ensures long-term stability and performance in demanding outdoor environments.
This washer is specifically designed for standard farmer screws and may not be compatible with specialized fasteners requiring different diameters or sealing profiles. It is not intended for high-temperature industrial applications where temperatures exceed the thermal limits of EPDM rubber.
To use the ELKO-BIS washer, place it onto the farmer screw before driving the screw through the material. Ensure the EPDM side is facing the surface of the metal sheet. Tighten the screw until the rubber seal is slightly compressed against the surface, creating a firm, watertight connection. Avoid over-tightening, as this may deform the washer or damage the seal.
For optimal performance and longevity, ensure that the metal surface is clean and free of debris before installation. Regularly inspect the screw connections after extreme weather events to ensure the integrity of the seal remains intact.
