Product Overview
A Rubber Hose Washer fits within a mating hose connection to form the intended rubber contact. Its central opening must leave the passage arranged as designed, while the outside edge needs a proper seat within the fitting.
ETOL customizes dimensions, compounds, hardness and colors. Select the washer around the actual connection and its intended medium, including food-contact requirements where applicable. Compare thickness as well as diameters, because the assembled compression depends on the space provided by the fitting.
Remove the old washer completely before fitting a replacement. A remnant beneath the new part can tilt it or reduce the available passage. Position the washer flat, assemble the connection by its specified method and evaluate the joint under the intended conditions. Do not stack extra washers to compensate for a damaged seat or mismatched fitting. During service, release the system appropriately before opening the connection and inspect the rubber for cuts or displacement. Correct a sharp edge or misaligned face before installing another washer into the same joint.
- Material options
- Silicone. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Silicone: 20–80 Shore A. Compare thickness as well as diameters, because the assembled compression depends on the space provided by the fitting.
- Custom dimensions
- Position the washer flat, assemble the connection by its specified method and evaluate the joint under the intended conditions.
- Fit & assembly
- Correct a sharp edge or misaligned face before installing another washer into the same joint.
- Use & inspection
- During service, release the system appropriately before opening the connection and inspect the rubber for cuts or displacement.

Ordering this custom component
Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Which details should be agreed before tooling?
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
Can a sample help define the replacement?
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
How is the quotation for this part determined?
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
