Description

Heat travels through bolts, and the phenolic washer breaks the path.

The Radium Engineering M8 Phenolic Insulating Washer isolates: a thermally insulating phenolic washer for M8 hardware, breaking the metal-to-metal conduction path where mounted components need protection from the structure they bolt to.

What You'll Feel

  • Heat-sensitive components isolated from hot mounting structure
  • The conduction path broken at the fastener where it concentrates
  • Purpose-made hardware where stacked flat washers used to improvise

Features

  • Phenolic insulating washer for M8 hardware
  • Thermal isolation at the fastener interface
  • Sold individually

The Details

Bolted joints conduct heat better than the panels around them, metal fastener clamped to metal structure, which is why isolating a component means isolating its fasteners: the phenolic's low conductivity interrupts the path while carrying the clamp load. Radium's hardware kits use the material where fuel and fluid components mount near heat, and the washers serve any M8 joint needing the same treatment. Torque sensibly, since phenolic carries clamping force but not gorilla torque. Sold individually; count your fasteners.

Kit Includes

  • 1x M8 phenolic insulating washer (14-0484)

Applications

  • M8 fastened joints needing thermal isolation
