Plain Washers
Plain Washers, also called flat washers, are placed beneath a bolt head or nut to distribute load and protect the bearing surface in suitable assemblies.
Function
Plain washers distribute bearing load and can help protect mating surfaces. Their selection must match the bolt, nut, hole and joint design.
Materials
BCUBE can evaluate carbon steel, alloy steel, stainless steel and other applicable washer materials.
Dimensions
Outside diameter, inside diameter, thickness and washer series are key procurement fields.
Standards
Dimensional and material requirements depend on the washer type and assembly. Structural hardened washers may fall under ASTM F436/F436M where specified; F436/F436M-24 covers hardened steel washers in inch and metric dimensions.
Applications
General engineering, fabrication, machinery, structural and industrial bolted assemblies.
Inspection
Dimensional inspection and material documentation can be provided as required.
Manufacturing & Sourcing
BCUBE operates through manufacturing and sourcing capabilities. Requirements can be evaluated from drawing, material, grade, standard, dimensions and quantity.
Certification & Inspection
EN 10204:3.1 material certificates and Indian or international third-party inspection can be supported where required by the order and agreed inspection scope.
Current & Previous Editions
Where a standard has multiple editions, BCUBE will identify the current edition and retain relevant previous editions for project-specific procurement searches. The client's approved drawing, specification and purchase order remain the controlling documents.
