Installation/Set-Up Challenges for Copper Washers

When using copper washers, common installation or setup challenges may include the following:

  1. Proper Compression: Ensuring the copper washer is compressed adequately during installation to prevent leaks or loosening over time.

  2. Correct Sizing: Using the right size of copper washer for the application to ensure a proper seal and prevent potential leaks.

  3. Clean Surfaces: Ensuring that surfaces are clean and free of debris before installing the copper washer to prevent leaks due to uneven sealing surfaces.

  4. Torque Specifications: Applying the correct torque during installation to avoid over-compression or under-compression of the copper washer.

  5. Material Compatibility: Confirming that copper washers are compatible with the materials they will be in contact with to prevent corrosion or other issues.

By addressing these common challenges, you can ensure a successful installation and proper functioning of copper washers in various applications.
