Bronze Flat Washer, Plain Finish, 1/4" Hole Size, 0.26" ID, 11/16" OD, 0.04" Nominal Thickness (Pack of 50)
The bronze flat washer has a plain finish. The flat washer provides a bearing surface for fastener load distribution or is used as a spacer between components. Bronze provides good corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments, and is stronger than copper. The material is nonmagnetic.
Washers distribute the load of a fastener across a surface and can also be used as spacers, springs, shims, or locking devices. Several different washer styles fit a variety of application and installation requirements. The most common style is a flat washer. More specialized washers provide additional benefits. A cup washer, for example, helps protect fasteners from electrical currents, while a lock washer offers additional security in an assembled workpiece.
