External tooth lock washers bite into the mating surface and fastener head when torqued, resisting loosening from vibration and dynamic loads. This washer measures between 0.256 and 0.267 inches inside diameter and 0.494 to 0.506 inches outside diameter, with a thickness of 0.025 inches. The zinc plating provides a basic level of corrosion resistance for general-purpose indoor and light-duty applications. Sold in a pack of 100, this washer is a standard consumable stocked by electricians, HVAC techs, plumbers, and general mechanical contractors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExternal tooth lock washers in this size are used wherever a 1\/4 inch fastener must resist vibration-induced loosening. Common applications include electrical panel and junction box assembly, HVAC unit sheet metal fastening, plumbing bracket mounting, and general equipment assembly. The Grade 2 designation suits standard load requirements in non-structural, non-critical fastening applications. The 100-piece pack quantity is appropriate for bench stock, service van inventory, or small project runs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExternal tooth design bites into mating surface to resist fastener back-out under vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 2 steel construction for standard-duty general-purpose use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 1\/4 inch screw with inside diameter range of 0.256 to 0.267 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThickness of 0.025 inches for consistent seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePack of 100 for bench stock or field inventory replenishment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/4 inch screws and bolts in general mechanical, electrical, HVAC, and plumbing fastening applications where an external tooth lock washer is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall with the teeth facing the fastener head or the surface being secured, not between two flat clamped surfaces.
