Extra Thick Flat Washers 18-8 Stainless Steel - 1/2" x 1-1/2" OD - 25 Pieces

A Flat washer is a round outer diameter thick plate with a center hole (inner diameter) punched to the size of the bolt or screw size. Flat washers are normally used to distribute loads of threaded bolts, screws and nuts evenly as the fastener is tightened. These extra thick flat washers are used in decks, docks and large timber projects. They add extra support to a fastener setup and are likely to reduce the risk of damaging the fastened material. Extra thick flat washers can handle the strength of a stronger fastener.
