A washer is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a screw or nut. Other uses are as a spacer, a wear pad, a preload indicating device, a locking device, and to reduce vibration.
Washers are also important for preventing galvanic corrosion, particularly by insulating steel screws from aluminium surfaces.
To complement our range of fixtures and fittings, we have sourced industrial black oxide washers in various sizes to suit various applications, such as furniture construction, woodworking projects, lighting design, and any general vintage industrial project.
These flat washers will create a more authentic appearance for your project.
For those of us who struggle with imperial measurements, we have included metric equivalents next to the sizes, usually in brackets [].
Contact us if you require a specific size that’s not on the list or a larger quantity.
