Washer

Although there are many types of washers, they are used in many areas. Made of metal or non-metallic materials, these discs are placed under nuts, axle bearings or joints to reduce friction, isolate parts, stop loosening, stop leaks or distribute pressure. They also aid in fastener security.

Stainless steel, titanium, aluminum, brass, copper-based alloy or bronze, copper, nickel-based alloy, spring steel, steel, hardened steel and zinc-plated washers are among the metallic materials used in flake production.
