Heavy SAE Flat Washer Grade 8 Zinc Yellow

Overview: SAE Flat Washer

The Heavy SAE Flat Washer from BoltCraft is engineered to meet the stringent requirements of high-strength bolted connections. With tighter tolerances, through-hardened construction, and precise outer diameter and inside diameter specifications, these flat washers ensure optimal performance under extreme conditions.

Applications & Advantages

• Ideal for automotive, construction, and industrial applications where high-strength bolts and threaded fasteners are utilized.
• Provides a smooth bearing surface, protecting the assembly material from damage during the tightening process and under vibration.
• The Grade 8 specification signifies superior hardness and durability, making it suitable for environments where high tensile strength is required.

Material & Specifications

• Made from SAE 1035-1050 steel, offering exceptional strength and resilience for industrial applications.
• The Rockwell hardness of C38-45 ensures the flat washers can withstand demanding loads without deformation.
• The zinc yellow plating not only provides corrosion resistance but also facilitates easy identification of the Grade 8 specification in the field.

Strength & Reliability

• These SAE flat washers are dimensionally equivalent to low carbon SAE washers but are manufactured from a higher grade of steel and heat-treated for enhanced performance.
• The thicker design ensures even load distribution, preventing bolt heads and nuts from embedding into the installation material, which could lead to loosening over time.
• Meets United States standard requirements, ensuring high reliability and durability for repair and maintenance tasks.

SAE Flat Washer Finish & Compliance

• The zinc yellow finish offers a distinct appearance while adding an extra layer of protection against environmental elements.
• Each flat washer is marked with an insignia identifying the manufacturer, as per product standards, ensuring traceability and quality assurance.
• Available in various diameter OD and thickness options to fit different threaded fastener sizes and bolt specifications.
