Metallics JLWX4SS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the Metallics #8 tooth lock washer stainless, and will it hold up outdoors or in a damp location?
These washers are made from 410 stainless, a hardenable martensitic stainless. It gives you the spring temper an external tooth washer needs to bite, plus far better corrosion resistance than plain steel for damp, washdown, or exterior enclosure work. 410 is the lower-chromium stainless family, so in salt spray or chemical exposure a 300-series fastener is the more corrosion-resistant choice.
2) Should I use an external tooth lock washer or a split lock washer on a device screw?
External tooth is what the JLWX4SS is, and the teeth sit on the outside diameter so they bite across a wider circle than a split washer's single cut end. That gives more anti-rotation grip under a screw head on sheet metal, panel, and bracket work, and it also scratches through paint or coating to help a bonding connection. A split lock washer is the choice where the hole is oversized or the bearing surface is narrow and you do not want tooth marks left in a finished surface.
3) Are Metallics JLWX4SS washers made to a standard size so they interchange with other brands?
They are built to the ANSI dimensional standard for #8 external tooth lock washers, so they interchange with any other ANSI-dimensioned #8 tooth washer already in your hardware. That matters for MRO buyers standardizing a stockroom across multiple fastener suppliers.
4) How many washers come in a jar of Metallics JLWX4SS?
100 pieces per jar. The jar pack is the reason to stock these on a service van or MRO shelf: it keeps a full count of #8 washers together instead of loose in a bin, and the whole jar weighs 0.09 lbs.
5) Can I use these stainless tooth washers on plumbing and HVAC jobs, or are they electrical only?
The JLWX4SS is carried for the electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning trades. Nothing about a #8 410 stainless external tooth washer limits it to one trade, so it works equally on strut clamps, panel covers, condensate pan brackets, and small equipment mounting.
6) How much shelf space does a jar of Metallics #8 tooth lock washers take up?
The jar measures 3 x 3 x 2.15 inches, which drops into a standard van bin or a small parts drawer without repacking.
