About this deal
Metric Form A Flat Washers are the most commonly used washer, and the standard against which other flat washer forms are based. Flat Washers can also be manufactured from a variety of specialist materials, including Aluminium, Brass, Phosphor Bronze, Nylon, PEEK, Polycetal, Reny, Polyphenylene, Polycarbonate and Titanium.
For instance, using stainless steel washers with aluminum parts could lead to corrosion unless a barrier is used between them.

They are commonly used in electronic devices, automotive components, and other applications where metal screws may be too heavy or prone to corrosion. Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion is partly due to the oxide layer that forms on its surface. Use Compatible Materials: If you’re using these washers with other materials, make sure those materials are compatible to avoid galvanic corrosion. However, cold working processes like bending, forming or drawing can introduce some degree of magnetism due to deformation of the crystal structure.This type of washer is also versatile, as it has a sleek, low-profile design that makes it suitable for a variety of applications. grade stainless steel maintains its mechanical integrity at temperatures ranging from cryogenic levels up to approximately 870°C (1600°F). Tightening: Over-tightening can deform the washer and compromise its ability to distribute load or seal a joint. However, its resistance to oxidation and corrosion may decrease at elevated temperatures, particularly when exposed to corrosive environments at high heat. Without this type of technology, our Services won't work properly or we won't be able to provide certain features and functionalities.
