Component Flat Washer, 18-8 Stainless Steel, Round Shape, USA Made, 5/8" Bolt Size, 0.656" ID, 1.313" OD, 0.219" Thick (Pack of 5) Feature

• Component Flat Washers are manufactured with thicker materials for extra strength and load distribution properties
• A stamped flatwasher originally used in the tool and die industry, and now used for its' extra thick design which has superior load distribution properties
• 18-8 Stainless Steel has a nice surface finish and is the most commonly used corrosion resistant material used
• Used for general MRO and industrial applications - excellent for marine environments
• Made In USA for excellent quality conformance

Component Flat Washers are named for their original popularity as a component of a jig or fixture, where a thicker washer was needed for the extra strength and load distribution properties that accompany the extra thickness. Our Component Washers are available from #4 screw size all the way thru 1-1/2" Bolt sizes. All Component Washers are thicker than any standard washer in general use. We provide two lines from stock - Thick and Extra Thick. Smaller diameters have a 5/64" thickness, going all the way up to 3/8" thickness, with the 1/8" thick line being the most popular. These washers are either stamped on power presses or turned on our lathes depending on the quantities we manufacture, and the wall thickness of the washer, which is the relationship between the thickness and the Inner Diameter dimension. All of these are suitable for use anywhere extra strength is needed. 18-8 Stainless Steel material offers excellent corrosion resistance, are harder than Brass, exhibit a slight magnetism, and are an attractive silver color.

Made in the USA. These flat washers are produced in the USA for excellent quality conformance. One of the significant differences between less expensive imported products and ours are the way we stamp. Many cheap imports are produced on gang dies that produce 10 or more washers per stroke of the press. Using such a large die means that the individual washer sets are not adjustable - when the punch wears, the dimensions change and there is no way to fix this as the press produces washers, leading to a large variation in the finished part.

Materials available in many other countries are not as consistent as the domestic steels we use, which gives the imports a cheaper cost, but can lead to failures and inconsistencies when the products are used. The Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) was created to address this problem. Our materials are DFARS compliant although we do not supply the certification except on special order.

• Flat Washers are an economical choice
• Stainless Steel is suitable where formability and cost are important considerations
• Size Name corresponds to matching screw or bolt size

Standard flat washers are an economical choice when your application calls for spacers, shims, or re-enforcements with nominal dimensions only.

Stainless steels are used for their corrosion resistance, high-temperature strength, scaling resistance, and low-temperature toughness.  These properties account for their extremely wide use in practically every industry. Austenitic Stainless Steels are alloys of iron and carbon that contain between 16% and 30% Chromium, a maximum of 0.15% carbon, along with Nickel (or Manganese), and other alloying elements.  The chromium, which helps develop a passive surface oxide film, provides corrosion resistance in stainless steels.   Austenitic Stainless Steels are designated by a 3 digit SAE Stainless Steel Grade beginning with the number 3 (e.g. 304, 316).  Another common naming convention for Austenitic Stainless Steels are 18/8, 18/10, 18/0, etc. where the 18 refers to the % of Chromium and 8 to the % of Nickel contained in the material.

• Fender Flat Washers have extra large outside diameters in relation to their bolt size
• Extra large Outside Diameter spreads the load over a wider area
• 18-8 Stainless Steel is the most common corrosion resistant Stainless Steel used in Flat Washers
• Great for homeowner repairs, general MRO applications

Fender Flatwashers were named because of their original use in auto body repair. The large outer diameter covered up a lot of area, and also spread the load across a wide area of thin sheet metal. In todays world these washers are used in electrical, construction, HVAC, and general industrial applications. The purpose of a washer is to spread the load from the head of the bolt across a wider area than the bolt head, which increases the strength of the joint. Fender washers do this well because the outer diameter is so much larger than the diameter of a standard flat washer. These standard (thin) Fender washers are manufactured in Steel Zinc, 18-8 Stainless Steel, and Type 316 Stainless Steel.

• Machined Flat Washers are produced on Lathes, so they have straight sides without any die break
• The tight fit of the inner diameter minimizes movement, and the thickness provides extra strength
• 12L14 Low Carbon Bar Stock is machined, then case hardened and nickel (silver color) plated for a finished appearance
• Used anywhere the washer is visible to the user, and you need a finished appearance that not only has the strength to work, but also conveys an image of quality and design consideration
• Made In USA for excellent quality conformance

Dress flat washers are named because they are used to dress up a product. Machined from round stock, they present a finished appearance from all sizes, and front and back. There is no die break on the sides of these washers, as they were produced in Lathes rather than stamped from a coil. Used on faceplates, excercise equipment, high quality architectural hardware, medical and optical instruments, and anywhere that a good looking strong product is required. Extra thick material is used to increase both the strength and the appearance. Machined from 12L14 Low Carbon Steel Bar, then case hardened. This hardens just the surface (top and bottom) of the washer, leaving the core soft to avoid cracking from being too brittle. Then Nickel Plated for a vibrant look, as well as corrosion inhibition.
