Steel Washers are used in conjunction with bolts, screws, and nuts to distribute the load and provide a smooth, even surface for the fastener to tighten against. These are typically made from various types of steel, including carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel. They are used to distribute the load of a fastener and prevent damage to the surface being fastened. One of the primary functions of Steel Washers is to distribute the load of a fastener over a larger surface area. This helps prevent damage to the material being fastened and ensures a more even distribution of forces.
