Metallics MSCW516 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is a square channel washer used for instead of a plain flat washer?
A channel washer is shaped to seat into the lips of strut channel, spreading load across the channel edges rather than sitting on a flat surface the way a standard flat washer does. The Metallics MSCW516 is a square channel washer intended for electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning work, which is where strut-mounted conduit racks, pipe hangers and equipment supports come up. For bolting two flat plates together, a standard flat washer is the correct part.
2) Are Metallics MSCW516 channel washers suitable for damp or outdoor locations?
These washers are zinc plated steel, which gives corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered conditions. Zinc plating is a light coating, so for direct weather exposure, wet process areas or coastal installations you're better off specifying hot dip galvanized or stainless channel washers.
3) What is the Metallics part number for 5/16 zinc plated channel washers?
MSCW516 is the Metallics manufacturer part number for the 5/16 zinc plated steel square channel washer, sold 100 to a jar. Order by that number to get the 1/4 and 5/16 bolt size washer rather than a larger channel washer.
4) How many channel washers come in a jar of Metallics MSCW516?
They ship 100 washers per jar. The jar packaging is the shop-and-van format, so it travels on a service truck without the washers scattering through a toolbox. Full jar weight is 15.34 lbs.
5) How much shelf or bin space does a jar of Metallics MSCW516 washers take up?
The jar measures 7.25 in length, 6.75 in width and 3.25 in height, so it fits a standard parts-room shelf or a deep van bin without repackaging. At 15.34 lbs filled, keep it low if you're stocking a mobile shelving unit.
