Description
A flat washer is a thin, flat, disc-shaped metal or plastic washer with a hole in the center. It is one of the most commonly used types of washers in various fastening applications. Flat washers are typically placed between the fastener (such as a nut or bolt head) and the surface of the material being fastened.
The main function of a flat washer is to distribute the load or force applied by the fastener over a larger surface area. By doing so, it helps to prevent damage to the material and improve the stability and integrity of the connection. The washer acts as a spacer and provides a smooth and even surface for the fastener to bear against.
