About Washers

Split Lock Washers
As a screw is tightened, these washers flatten to add tension to the joint, counteracting fatigue around the joint from small amounts of vibration. This makes them a common choice to prevent fasteners from loosening. However, they resist the least amount of vibration compared to other locking washers.
These washers are compatible with fasteners that have right-hand threads to prevent clockwise rotation. The uneven split ends bite into fasteners for a tight grip, but they won’t work with hardened surfaces. These washers hold better than curved or wave washers. They are not reusable after tightening.
Black-oxide steel washers are mildly corrosion resistant in dry environments.
316 stainless steel washers have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water. They may be mildly magnetic.
18-8 stainless steel washers have good chemical resistance and may be mildly magnetic.
Zinc- and zinc yellow-chromate plated steel washers are corrosion resistant in wet environments.
Washers that meet ASME B18.21.1 adhere to strict dimensional standards.

Leveling Washers for I-Beams
Commonly called beveled washers, these are tapered to fit inside an I-beam's flange to provide a parallel bearing surface.
Black-oxide iron washers have a matte-black finish that prevents corrosion in dry environments.
Hot-dipped galvanized iron washers are corrosion resistant in wet environments.
Aluminum washers are lightweight and corrosion resistant in wet environments.
