Description
Overview:
Forgefix Flat Repair Washers ZP M6 x 40mm are large outside-diameter washers designed to spread the load under a bolt head or nut. Made from zinc-plated steel, they offer a smooth bearing surface that helps stop fasteners loosening on uneven or oversized holes. The bright zinc plating provides corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor use. With a 40mm (1.57 inches) outside diameter and M6 (6 mm / 0.24 inches) clearance size, they suit standard M6 bolts and set screws commonly found on construction and garden machinery. Use them to reinforce fixings in sheet metal, timber, plastics, guards, brackets, and machine panels. Supplied in a practical bag of 10, they are a reliable choice for maintenance, repairs, and installation work where extra support is needed.
