Not at the moment. But we are always open to new ideas! if enough people want us to, then we certainly can. Let us know if you'd like that at support@gasqet.com. We'd also love to hear why!

DIN 125 is a standard for washer dimensions made in any material. It specifies the sizes of standard washer based on the corresponding bolt or scre size. Not every washer confirms to this though. Washers can come in many different shapes and sizes and can even be custom made.

DIN 433 is a standard specification for fixutures suitable for cheese head screws for any material. It specifies the variation in the sizes and weight of washers as much as it's standard dimensions. Which is important to understand in high sensitivity contexts. if it's too big or small, it's has a huge negative impact on the performance of the system as a whole.

Grommets are either fillers or sleeves for wirs to prevent them being cut or worn away on cases or boards. They can also be used as makeshift springs for screw or nut and bolt fixtures. Washers are simply meant to act as seals or spacers to pevent damage or the escape of water or air. A key diffference is grommets have a "slot" or groove cut into the depth of the ring which then slot into the holes in enclosures say, to keep cables and sharp edges seperate.

While most of our washers are designed to a standard, we do have a supply of non-standard washers available. They were designed to be as strong as normal, but lighter. This means they are usually thinnner and are manufactured with different infills or air pockets to maintain themobarics equivalence to normal washers, given the different recyclable material we use. In short, yes, but they are not any different in performance to the orginals, just stronger and last longer.   

Crank it, yes! While it depends on your application, but because they are stronger material, you can tighten them a lot! That tight seal secures much higher pressure than normal. But this does mean that you might have to tighten it more than you otherwise would. In household plumbing, like basins and taps, we recommend an extra 5% to 15% on torque settings. So if you set a torque wrench to 15Nm with standard neoprene, we would recommend tightening to between 15.8 - 17.2Nm. Trust us, they're not going anywhere!

The strength of any strapping depends on its thickness and the materials made from. Our strapping has been tested for lightweight use up to 24kg or a large suitcase full, per strand. Most packages sent by courier or mainstream delivery service, weigh less than this. So there is no point using heavyweight strapping and a complex set of tools to pack it together. 
The table below shows the strength of the strapping we have. Our strapping is also reusable. You carefully unbuckle it and away you go!

Plant it and see! 

Every item and order you buy from us, includes 2 extra things with it.

1. A seed card - we have replaced all our instruction cards with plantable cards that grow either herbs or Meadow flowers. Find a spot and get together with neighbours to plant Meadow flowers in wild areas, help me generate some of the world's lost habitat.
2. A tree – Every order also has a tree planted in your honour. This also helps to regenerate woodlands lost through human activity.

That pointless card isn’t so pointless now!
