Description
Overview:
The Forgefix Flat Washer Heavy-Duty ZP M12 (bag of 100) is a plain steel washer with a bright zinc-plated finish designed for general fastening and structural duties. Made to the DIN 125 Form A pattern, it provides a flat, smooth bearing surface under bolt heads or nut faces to spread the clamping load and help prevent damage or pull‐through. Sized for M12 fasteners (12 mm thread), these washers support reliable assemblies in construction, plant maintenance, automotive repair, metal fabrication, and workshop use. The zinc plating offers practical corrosion protection for everyday indoor and sheltered outdoor environments. Supplied in a convenient pack size for site and stockroom use, they suit hex bolts, set screws, and threaded rod in fixtures, frames, guards, brackets, and machinery mounts.
Key Features:
- Steel flat washer, DIN 125 Form A pattern for consistent fit with M12 fasteners
- Bright zinc-plated (ZP) for enhanced corrosion resistance in typical UK conditions
- Heavy-duty section supports higher clamp loads and repeated tightening cycles
- Smooth, flat faces help reduce fretting and preserve mating surfaces
- Distributes load evenly under bolt heads and nuts to reduce embedment and loosening
- Suits hex bolts, set screws, cap screws, and M12 studding
- Reliable choice for construction fixings, plant and vehicle maintenance, and general fabrication
- Pack of 100 pieces for convenient workshop and site replenishment
- Compatible with steel, timber, and composite assemblies where a flat bearing surface is required
- Conforms to DIN 125 for dimensional consistency and predictable performance
Typical Applications:
General fixing and assembly work on machinery frames, guard plates, base plates, brackets, racking, and plant equipment. Useful in construction anchors, timber-to-steel connections, vehicle bodywork repairs, agricultural and garden machinery maintenance, and metal fabrication where M12 bolts or nuts are used and load spreading is required.
