They are bright Zinc Plated for increased corrosion resistance.  Washers provide a smooth surface for the nut or bolt to bear on, making it less likely to loosen as a result of an uneven fastening surface. The main purpose of a washer is to distribute the load under a bolt head or the nut face.  APPLICATION:On all manner of bolting applications. Can be used with all types of bolts and nuts.  Zinc coatings prevent oxidation of the protected metal to create a longer lasting finish. It does this by forming a barrier and by acting as a sacrificial anode if this barrier is damaged. Zinc oxide is a fine white dust that (in contrast to iron oxide) does not trigger a breakdown of the substrate’s surface integrity as it is formed. The zinc oxide, if left intact, can act as a barrier to further oxidation, in a way similar to the protection afforded to aluminum and stainless steels by their oxide layers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Forgefix","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56512608272716,"sku":"FORMWASH650M","price":1.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/2866\/8492\/files\/1414191858-81309100.jpg?v=1768736691","url":"https:\/\/ciponline.co.uk\/products\/forgefix-flat-mudguard-washers-zp-m6-x-50mm-bag-10-p13158","provider":"Cassells Industrial Products Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
