PMP Flat Washers, available in sizes from M3 to M12, are crafted from Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMP), also known as acrylic. These washers are designed to distribute the load of fasteners such as screws or bolts, protecting surfaces and providing a stable, secure fit. PMP is renowned for its excellent optical clarity, making these washers ideal for applications where transparency is important. The material also boasts high impact resistance, UV stability, and good chemical resistance, ensuring durability in various environments. PMP's low moisture absorption further enhances its suitability for use in both indoor and outdoor applications.

Metric Size – M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, M10, M12

Advantages of Using PMP Flat Washers:

Optical Clarity: PMP's transparency allows for an unobtrusive appearance, making these washers ideal for applications where visibility is key.

High Impact Resistance: The material's toughness ensures that the washers can withstand impacts without cracking, providing long-lasting performance.

UV Stability: PMP is resistant to UV radiation, preventing yellowing and degradation over time, which is particularly beneficial for outdoor applications.

Chemical Resistance: PMP washers resist a wide range of chemicals, including mild acids and alkalis, ensuring durability in various environments.

Low Moisture Absorption: The material absorbs minimal moisture, maintaining its mechanical properties and clarity even in humid or wet conditions.

Lightweight: PMP washers are significantly lighter than those made from metal, offering ease of handling and installation.
