Overview: Medium Split Lock Washer – Grade 8
- The Grade 8 Yellow Zinc Medium Split Lock Washer by BoltCraft is a premium choice for keeping bolted connections tight and secure under high stress and dynamic loads.
- Its split lock design maintains pressure on the fastener assembly, significantly minimizing the risk of loosening over time. This lock washer is built to withstand intense environments where vibration and shifting loads are routine.
Applications & Advantages
- Built for demanding conditions, this medium split lock washer is perfect for use with Grade 8 Bolts in automotive, industrial, and construction applications. Whether you’re reinforcing a nut or bolting into a hardened material, the washer adds consistent friction and supports access to high-integrity fastening.
- The yellow zinc finish provides corrosion resistance and helps easily identify the washer’s grade. It also reduces the potential for galvanic reactions, particularly when paired with compatible metal fasteners. The split lock structure ensures that even with constant movement or vibration, the bolt and nut stay in place securely.
Material & Specifications: Split Lock Washer Medium Grade 8
- This split lock washer is manufactured from high-strength alloy steel and finished with a yellow zinc plating for improved longevity and rust resistance.
- Every unit is built to meet or exceed industrial-grade tolerances, offering consistency in both size and performance. The outer diameter and interior dimensions align with Grade 8 bolt and nut specifications, making it an ideal addition to your hardware selection.
Reliability & Performance
- This lock washer is designed for resilience. Its split lock structure boosts mechanical grip and actively counters loosening from torque and vibration. Each washer undergoes rigorous testing to verify its ability to perform under pressure—whether in constant rotation or during sudden impact.
- The yellow zinc finish isn’t just cosmetic; it reinforces the structural integrity of the washer over time and reduces cost in long-term maintenance by delaying corrosion. That means fewer replacements and better overall value.
