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":56278408659276,"sku":"FORWASH3M","price":0.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/2866\/8492\/files\/1414192088-48534300.jpg?v=1766154965","url":"https:\/\/ciponline.co.uk\/products\/forgefix-flat-washer-form-b-zp-m3-bag-100-p13906","provider":"Cassells Industrial Products Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
