Product Description

Also known as plain washers, flat washers distribute the fastener's load while reducing heat and friction during the tightening process. Flat washers prevent the bearing surface from sinking under the load. Flat washers can also be used as spacers, as is common in industrial and domestic applications.

Product Information

  • A washer is a thin plate (typically disk-shaped, but sometimes square) with a hole (typically in the middle) that is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a bolt or nut.
