Washers
A washer spreads the load of a bolt or nut, protects the surface and, in the case of spring washers, helps stop loosening.
- Plain / flat washers (DIN 125 / IS 2016): for general use under nuts and bolt heads
- Spring washers (DIN 127 / IS 3063): split-ring washers that resist loosening from vibration
- Fender / penny washers: large outside diameter for thin sheet, wood and plastic
- Stainless steel washers: for outdoor and wet areas
