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.
Flat washers are great for adding resistance to your bolts and screws that will provide a greater bearing surface under the fastener to prevent them from boring into the surface and weakening it. Used behind a nut or screw head to distribute load and to prevent material from buckling or screw pull-through. Washer sizes are specified by the bolt or screw diameter and should be matched to ensure proper fit. Flat washers also prevent loosening due to vibration and can act as spacers. Flat Washers are free from burrs and have smooth, flat surfaces. Use stainless steel where corrorsion is and rust is of concern or in exterior applications. Best for general hardware use or where high strength is not required.

S.A.E. Steel Washers are made from strip steel; have bright, smooth, flat surfaces; are highly polished and are free from burrs.
Finishing Washers are also called a trim or cup washers. They are used in all types of trim work with flat or oval head screws. The cupped design gives a clean finished appearance and dress up any project. Use stainless steel where corrorsion is and rust is of concern or in exterior applications. Best for general hardware use or where high strength is not required.
