Description
Overview:
The Forgefix Flat Washer Heavy-Duty ZP M6 Bag 100 (100HDWASH6) is a set of robust, zinc-plated steel washers for general fastening and machinery maintenance. Sized for M6 fixings (6 mm nominal bolt size), these plain flat washers are manufactured to DIN 125 Form A for consistent quality and reliable seating. The bright zinc plating (BZP) resists rust, making them suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Designed to spread load beneath bolt heads and nuts, they protect base materials, reduce surface damage, and help maintain clamp force in vibrating assemblies. Ideal for construction equipment and garden machinery, they suit applications on frames, brackets, guards, housings, and panels where a secure, even bearing surface is required.
Key Features:
- Heavy-duty flat washers for M6 bolts, set screws, machine screws, and threaded rod
- Conforms to DIN 125 Form A for standard outside diameter and thickness
- Bright zinc plating (BZP) for strong corrosion resistance in demanding environments
- Distributes load to prevent pull-through and minimise surface marking
- Helps maintain joint integrity and reduce loosening under vibration
- Smooth faces for even seating and consistent torque tightening
- Compatible with steel, aluminium, and painted or coated assemblies
- Supplied in a practical bag of 100 for workshop and site use
- Suitable for construction plant, agricultural and garden machinery, and general fabrication
- Simple to fit with standard hand tools; no special tooling required
Typical Applications:
Used beneath nuts and bolt heads on guards, brackets, covers, engine housings, mounting plates, and chassis panels. Common in repairs and assembly of mixers, generators, compactors, mowers, and general fabrications. Ideal where even load spread and surface protection are required, including fixing to softer materials or thin sheet to avoid deformation and to maintain clamp load.
