Value Collection BDNA-32717 Fender Flat Washer 1/2 in Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BDNA-32717 is a zinc-plated steel fender flat washer designed for use with 1/2 inch fasteners. Fender washers feature a larger-than-standard outside diameter, spreading clamp load over a wider surface area to reduce pull-through on thin materials or oversized holes. This washer measures 17/32 inches ID, 2 inches OD, and 1/8 inch thick. The zinc plating provides a base level of corrosion resistance suitable for general indoor and light-duty applications. Plumbers, electricians, and general tradespeople reach for this style of washer when securing panels, conduit straps, or sheet goods where a standard washer would have insufficient bearing surface.

This fender washer is appropriate for residential and light commercial construction, mechanical rooms, electrical enclosures, and general maintenance work. The 2 inch outside diameter makes it well suited for applications where fastener holes are oversized or where load distribution across a soft substrate is required. It installs with any standard 1/2 inch bolt or screw and requires no special tooling.

Key Features

• Large 2 inch OD distributes clamping load across a wider bearing surface
• 17/32 inch ID fits standard 1/2 inch fasteners with minimal slop
• 1/8 inch thickness provides rigidity without adding excessive stack height
• Steel construction with zinc-plated finish for general corrosion resistance
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard SAE fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fender flat washer for use with 1/2 inch screws and bolts in general trade and construction applications.

Installation Notes

This washer is installed by hand or with a wrench alongside a standard 1/2 inch fastener. No special tools are required. Ensure the mating surface is clean and free of debris before assembly to achieve consistent clamp load. Zinc-plated fastener hardware is not recommended for direct contact with pressure-treated lumber containing copper-based preservatives or for continuously wet outdoor environments where a higher corrosion rating may be required.
