Description
Overview:
Forgefix Spring Washers ZP M12 are split, helical washers made from zinc‐plated steel, supplied in a practical bag of 100. Designed to sit under a nut or bolt head, they apply a spring force that helps maintain clamp load and resist loosening caused by vibration, movement or thermal cycling. The bright zinc plating provides a durable, silver finish with added corrosion resistance. Suitable for M12 metric fasteners (12 mm nominal thread), they are widely used on construction and garden machinery, plant, fabrications, and general engineering fixings. This pack is a reliable workshop or site consumable where regular M12 assemblies are built, serviced or repaired. Manufacturer Part Number: FORSW12M.
Key Features:
- M12 size for use with 12 mm metric bolts and nuts
- Split helical design maintains preload and resists loosening under vibration
- Bright zinc plated finish for added corrosion resistance and a clean appearance
- Robust steel construction for dependable mechanical strength
- Simple to fit: position under the nut or bolt head before tightening
