Steel Flat Washers
A washer is generally used to bear the load of a threaded fastener, such as a nut or screw. Never underestimate the impact a small washer can have on an overall operation. Flat washers, like the ones we offer at Phoenix Specialty Manufacturing, are used as a spacer, a wear pad, a spring, or a locking device. They are meant to reduce vibration and limit corrosion from occurring by providing a smooth-bearing surface.
Why Choose Steel
Flat washers are available in a variety of different materials such as steel, aluminum, plastic, brass, and more. A steel flat washer offers many benefits. Depending on what type of application the washer will be used for, steel is good for many reasons.
Steel has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any other building material, so you know it is extremely durable. It is also an inorganic alloy consisting mostly of iron with a carbon content range between .08% and .13%. One advantage of steel is the fact that you will not have to worry about it splitting, cracking, rotting, warping, or twisting over time. Steel is generally a low-cost material and is 100% recyclable. When you are needing custom-made flat washers, choose steel as your material.
Popular Applications
