Midwest Fasteners Grade 2 Zinc Plated Steel Fender Washer
The Midwest Fasteners Grade 2 Zinc Plated Steel Fender Washer is a Grade 2 steel washer finished in bright zinc plating for added corrosion resistance on everyday fastening jobs. This family is offered in multiple washer sizes — 1/8" x 3/4", 5/32" x 7/8", and 1/4" x 1" — so you can match the correct inside-diameter-to-outside-diameter combination to your bolt or screw and the material you are securing. Fender washers carry a larger outside diameter relative to their inside hole than a standard flat washer, spreading clamping load over a wider bearing surface when you need to bridge an oversized hole, reinforce a thin or soft material, or keep a bolt head or nut from pulling through sheet metal, fiberglass, wood, or fender panels. Every size in this family is manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish suited to general-purpose indoor and light outdoor use, and as a Grade 2 part it is built for standard-duty applications rather than high-strength structural work. Country of origin for this washer family is China.
