Fender Washers are used under the head a a nut or bolt to distribute the forces applied when tightening. Fender washers have a large outside diameter. They are the ideal solution for covering oversized or odd-shaped holes to prevent pull-through and are ideal to use with thin sheet metal. Fender washers can also protect the surrounding surface area. Designed for interior and exterior projects, sheet metal work, plumbing, electrical applications and auto body repair. The larger surface area offers a thinner body for strong, durable performance for all projects.
Lock washers known as split lock washers place tension against a nut after tightening, to help prevent the nut from loosening. They provide a more uniform load distribution, and are great for any indoor/outdoor project. Ideal for situations where potential loosening from corrosion or vibration is a concern. Lock washers provide a locking spring action and are used to prevent nuts and bolts from coming loose from vibrations. They have split ends that help "lock" into the mating material, thus providing a locking feature when tightened beneath a nut. Steel is zinc plated for moderate protection against rust. Use hot dipped galvanized finish or stainless steel where corrorsion and rust is of concern or in exterior projects.
Designed with sharp teeth as a great locking mechanism, tooth lock washers create a ratchet action by biting into the material and surfaces they contact. Ideal for situations where potential loosening from corrosion or vibration is a concern, tooth lock washers are used to prevent nuts and bolts from coming loose. These fasteners contain teeth around the outer diameter that help bite into the joint material, thus providing a locking feature when tightened beneath a nut. The zinc finish provides rust resistance. Use with treated lumber in applications with like nuts and bolts of similar diameter.
Ideal for deck building and exterior wood projects
