Manufactured from Grade 8 steel with a zinc yellow dichromate finish, this washer provides corrosion resistance and a broad bearing surface for load distribution across standard hardware assemblies. The USS (United States Standard) pattern specifies a larger outer diameter relative to screw size compared to SAE washers, making it well suited for applications where increased clamping area or softer substrate protection is needed. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals will find this washer appropriate for a wide range of structural and equipment fastening tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis washer is used in residential and commercial construction, mechanical equipment assembly, plumbing fixture mounting, electrical panel work, and general MRO (maintenance, repair, and operations) applications. The zinc yellow dichromate finish provides a baseline level of corrosion protection suitable for dry and mildly humid indoor environments. It is typically installed by plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, millwrights, and general contractors wherever a standard 3\/8-inch fastener assembly requires a broad seating surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUSS flat washer pattern with larger OD for increased load distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrade 8 steel construction for high-strength fastening applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eZinc yellow dichromate finish provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7\/16-inch inside diameter fits standard 3\/8-inch screw or bolt shanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch outside diameter provides broad bearing surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInch measurement system, compatible with standard SAE tooling and hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard USS-pattern flat washer for use with 3\/8-inch screws and bolts across general mechanical, construction, and trade fastening applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis washer is installed by any trade requiring standard 3\/8-inch bolt assemblies, including HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. Always confirm fastener grade compatibility before assembly, as mixing Grade 8 hardware with lower-grade fasteners can affect joint integrity. No special tools are required beyond standard wrenches or socket sets. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and free of debris before seating the washer to maintain proper clamping load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWasher Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: USS Flat Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Grade 8\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScrew Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Zinc Yellow Dichromate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement System\u003c\/strong\u003e: Inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.01 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31161807\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 36752\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694037598514,"sku":"36752","price":30.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b69effa93d0e6a9114d8a414be014432.jpg?v=1788319661","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-36752-uss-flat-washer-3-8-in-steel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
