Description
Overview:
The Forgefix Flat Washer Form B ZP M5 Bag 100 is a set of 100 plain washers made from zinc‐plated steel for general fastening duties across construction and garden machinery. Sized for M5 threads, each washer provides a smooth bearing surface under a bolt head or nut to spread the load, protect the joint face, and improve stability on uneven or soft materials. The bright zinc plating offers reliable corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor environments, helping fasteners last longer. Use with M5 bolts, set screws or studs on brackets, guards, panels and housings where a neat, secure assembly is required. Supplied as a convenient bulk pack for maintenance teams and workshop spares. Reference codes include 100WASH5 and MPN FORWASH5M.
