These 1/4 in. heavy-duty flat washers are made from hot-dip galvanized steel for excellent corrosion resistance and dependable performance in demanding fastening applications. Their durable galvanized coating makes them well suited for use with pressure-treated lumber, particularly on inland structures and projects exposed to freshwater.
Hot-dip galvanized flat washers have long been a standard choice for heavy-duty construction and woodworking applications. The galvanized coating provides strong protection against corrosion while allowing these washers to be paired with compatible galvanized fasteners. The slightly looser fit of galvanized threaded connections helps accommodate the dimensional variations associated with the galvanizing process.
Use these 1/4 in. galvanized flat washers to help distribute clamping pressure over a larger surface area when installing bolts, lag screws, and other compatible fasteners. They are commonly used with pressure-treated materials for decks, outdoor structures, framing, and other inland or freshwater applications.
Hot-dip galvanizing provides very good corrosion resistance for a wide range of outdoor fastening applications. These washers are a practical choice when you need durable galvanized hardware for projects that may encounter moisture, weather, or pressure-treated lumber.
Do not mix dissimilar metals such as galvanized steel and stainless steel in the same fastening system. Contact between dissimilar metals can promote galvanic corrosion and may reduce the service life of the fastener assembly. Select compatible fastener materials and finishes for your specific application.
Always check local building codes and project requirements to verify that the selected fasteners and washers meet applicable requirements before construction.
