Nylon washer Tefcold SpareParts TC6000131602

A nylon washer acts as a sealing and spacing component between metal parts in catering equipment. It prevents leaks, absorbs vibration and distributes pressure evenly across a joint, protecting threads and surfaces from wear. Without a washer, bolts and screws can loosen over time, leading to gaps that let in moisture or allow refrigerants to escape. Nylon is chosen for its resistance to corrosion, its ability to withstand temperature changes and its low friction, which keeps fasteners secure without binding. To use the washer, place it over the bolt or screw before threading it into the equipment. Ensure the flat side sits against the surface and the chamfered edge faces the bolt head or nut. Tighten the fastener until the washer compresses slightly, creating a seal without deforming the nylon. Check periodically for signs of wear or flattening, as a damaged washer loses its sealing properties. The washer is made from nylon, a material that resists oils, greases and many cleaning chemicals found in professional kitchens. It does not conduct electricity, making it safe for use near electrical components in refrigeration units and other catering appliances. This spare part fits Tefcold refrigeration and catering equipment where the manufacturer specifies washer TC6000131602. This nylon washer creates a tight seal between metal compressor fittings in commercial refrigeration units, preventing coolant leaks under vibration.
