The flange 12 is a tight fit on the washer 1, whilst the flange 13 is in rubbing contact with the washer 2. The elastomeric material may be oil-resisting nitrile rubber having a Shore hardness of 70-80. The casing may be strengthened by a metal or fibrous ring 17, which is fitted or bonded to the inner or outer surface or moulded in. |
