Description

M10 Flat Washer Electro-Galvanised Steel

Designed for use with machine-threaded fasteners and nuts, this electro-galvanised (E/G) flat washer helps distribute the load over a larger surface area when tightening bolts, screws, or nuts. The electro-galvanised coating provides a protective zinc layer, enhancing corrosion resistance and durability in various applications.

How Do They Work?

Washers play a crucial role in fastening assemblies by acting as spacers and distributing loads evenly. Positioned between a nut and bolt, they help prevent surface wear, distortion, and damage, ensuring a more secure and long-lasting installation.

Features and Benefits

• Electro-galvanised steel for improved corrosion resistance
• Helps prevent material wear and distortion
• Available in a variety of sizes to suit different applications

Applications

Flat washers are essential in mechanical, construction, and industrial environments. They reduce the surface load when fastening materials, lowering the risk of wear and tear. Additionally, they simplify maintenance by allowing for easier loosening and tightening of components.

What is a Form A Washer?

A Form A washer adheres to British Standards for metric outer diameter and thickness. It has a standard thickness and diameter, making it ideal for general-purpose fastening applications.

Plain Washer vs. Penny Washer

Besides standard flat washers, you may encounter penny washers, fender washers, or mudguard washers. These washers feature a larger external diameter relative to the inner hole, allowing for greater load distribution. They are particularly useful for reinforcing worn fixing holes or fastening large surface areas.
