Value Collection -36704-HD Sae Flat Washer 7/16 in Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION -36704-HD is an SAE flat washer designed for use with 7/16 inch fasteners. Manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a zinc yellow dichromate finish, this washer provides a load-bearing surface that distributes clamping force evenly and protects against corrosion in moderate-exposure environments. The SAE specification defines the outer diameter and thickness tolerances to match standard fastener sizing. Licensed tradespeople and assembly technicians reach for SAE flat washers in structural, mechanical, and equipment-mounting applications where consistent bearing surface dimensions are required.

This washer fits standard 7/16 inch screw and bolt applications across a wide range of trade and industrial settings, including HVAC equipment mounting, electrical panel assembly, plumbing fixture installation, and general mechanical assembly. The Grade 8 material rating indicates high-strength steel, making this washer appropriate for bolted joints subject to elevated load or vibration. The zinc yellow dichromate coating provides a visual identifier commonly associated with Grade 8 hardware and offers baseline corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered outdoor use.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock hardware item for use with 7/16 inch SAE-specification bolts and screws in residential and commercial mechanical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Install using standard hand or power tools appropriate to the fastener being used. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before seating the washer. Always torque the fastener assembly to the joint specification required by the applicable code or equipment manufacturer. Do not substitute this washer in applications requiring a hardened or lock washer without verifying joint design requirements.
