Description
Overview:
The Spring Washers ZP M8 Bag 100 by Forgefix are versatile fasteners designed to help keep bolted joints tight in areas subject to movement and vibration. Made from zinc-plated steel for reliable corrosion resistance, each washer applies a continuous clamping force under the nut or bolt head to reduce the risk of loosening over time. Suitable for use on construction plant, workshop equipment, fixtures, and garden machinery, they are a practical choice for maintenance and assembly tasks where reliability matters. Supplied as a pack of 100 for efficient stocking on site or in the workshop. Product code: 100SW8. Manufacturer Part Number: FORSW8M. Intended for M8 threaded fasteners (8 mm), providing a neat, durable solution for everyday engineering and repair work.
Key Features:
- Zinc-plated (ZP) steel construction for improved corrosion resistance and a clean, durable finish
- M8 size for use with 8 mm bolts, studs, and nuts in common assemblies and repairs
- Spring action helps maintain clamp load to counteract loosening from vibration and thermal cycling
- Even load distribution helps protect mating surfaces compared to tightening against bare metal
- Simple to fit using standard hand tools; install between the nut (or bolt head) and the mating surface
