Description
Overview:
Forgefix Flat Repair Washers ZP M12 x 40mm are large outside diameter washers for spreading the clamping load of M12 bolts and nuts. Made from durable steel with a bright zinc plated finish, they offer dependable corrosion resistance in general indoor and outdoor use. The 40mm outside diameter (1.57 inches) gives a wide bearing surface to reduce pull-through on oversized or slotted holes and to protect softer materials. The flat, smooth faces help keep fixings tight under vibration, useful on construction equipment and garden machinery where brackets, guards, panels, and frames are routinely assembled and serviced. Supplied in a convenient bag of 10, these washers fit standard M12 fixings and are suitable for use with bolts, set screws, and threaded rod in everyday repair and installation work.
