What is Zinc Plated Soft Iron Gasket Washer?

Zinc plated soft iron gasket washer is made of soft iron, and then covered by yellow or white zinc plated on it to avoid rust, as pure soft iron is very easy to be rusted. Soft iron has low retentivity as loses its magnetism easily, whereas, hard iron retains its magnetic property for a long period.

Soft Iron Grade We Are Using

The soft iron grade we used for making gasket washer can be DT4, DT4A, DT4E and DT4C.

Why We Use a Soft Iron Gasket?

The reason why we use soft iron gasket is that it is very cheap, when compared with other stainless steel gasket washer, soft iron material is a cheap one choice which can save your cost.

Applications of Zinc Plated Soft Iron Gasket Washer

Zinc plated soft iron gasket washer is manufactured for unique and unusual applications and it is designed to distribute the load of a fastener such as a screw, bolt, nut, or another form of connecting fastener that securely fits.

Zinc plated soft iron gasket washer makes it easier to loosen or remove a nut from a bolt and easily resecure it. There are many types of washers for home use as well as those that are produced for industrial applications.

The Methods of Producing Zinc Plated Soft Iron Gasket Washer

1. Press Die Cutting

Press die cutting is the most popular method for manufacturing gaskets and uses traditional presses for cutting metal and other more rigid non-metallic materials. The die is attached to the ram of the press, which lowers against the workpiece to cut out the gasket. The amount of force required to produce the gasket varies depending on the type of material. The types of presses include hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrical, with more precision cuts being completed manually.

2. Knifeless Die CNC Cutting

In knifeless cutting, a blade is used to cut the shape of the gasket. It is a computer numeric control (CNC) process that uses computer-aided design (CAD) programming to guide the cutting of the material. The dimensions of the gasket are created in CAD and downloaded into the CNC machine that completes the process.

3. Waterjet Cutting

Waterjet cutting is a slower process than die cutting but does not involve tools such as dies and die shaping. The cutting process is completed using pressurized water that removes the substrate without waste or fumes. The only byproduct of the process is a light mist of water. Waterjet cutting has gained increasing popularity due to its being environmentally friendly.

4. Laser Cutting

Laser cutting produces gaskets with tolerances of ±0.0005. Several types of lasers are used to produce gaskets, including CO2 and ultraviolet lasers. More and more gasket producers are finding that there isn’t one standard size of gasket since technology and new designs are continually being implemented. These factors make laser cutting the ideal process for producing custom gaskets. As with knifeless die cutting and waterjet cutting, laser cutting uses CAD designs programmed into CNC machines.
