Flange Wedge for Non-Spark Plumbing
The Westward 23X835 is a flange wedge trap built from beryllium copper alloy for non-sparking and non-magnetic performance. It measures four inches long, three-quarters of an inch wide and has a minimum height of one twenty-fifth inch and maximum height of one-half inch. This transparent component suits plumbing installations where spark risk must be eliminated.
Replaces Standard Steel Wedges in Hazardous Areas
Standard ferrous wedges create spark hazards near flammable vapours or sensitive electronics. The beryllium copper alloy removes that ignition source while meeting FM 7910. The upgrade is worth it when codes or site rules demand non-sparking tools and the wedge geometry matches the existing flange profile.
Fits Flanged Drain Assemblies Requiring
The wedge slides into flanged drain connections where magnetic interference or spark potential disqualifies ordinary hardware. Its transparent body allows visual confirmation of seat engagement during assembly. No specialised tools are needed beyond standard plumbing hand tools, and the non-magnetic alloy frees the installer from concerns about metallic debris in sensitive lines.

Questions about this item
What are the exact dimensions of the 23X835 flange wedge trap so I can verify it fits my pipe?
The wedge measures 4 inches long, 3/4 inch wide, and tapers from a minimum height of 1/25 inch to a maximum of 1/2 inch.
How do I install this non-sparking flange wedge without damaging the beryllium copper alloy?
Insert the tapered wedge between the flange faces and tap gently with a non-marring hammer until the joint is secure; avoid over-driving which can deform the soft alloy.
Will the beryllium copper material require replacement due to wear or corrosion in a plumbing system?
The non-magnetic, non-sparking alloy resists corrosion and does not degrade under normal drain use; replacement is only needed if the wedge is physically damaged or lost during maintenance.
