Value Collection FENW0250150OZ Fender Flat Washer Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FENW0250150OZ is a zinc-plated steel fender washer designed for use with 1/4-inch fasteners. Fender washers feature a larger-than-standard outside diameter, spreading clamping load over a wider surface area to reduce pull-through and damage on soft or thin materials. This washer measures 0.25 inches inner diameter and 1.5 inches outer diameter, with a thickness of 0.049 inches. The zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance for general indoor and light outdoor applications. It is well suited for electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors working with sheet metal, paneling, or thin substrates.

Fender washers of this size are commonly used in residential and light commercial construction and maintenance work. Typical applications include securing conduit straps, mounting thin sheet metal panels, and backing fasteners in wood or drywall assemblies where standard washers would not provide adequate bearing surface. This washer is sold individually but carries a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it appropriate for stocking in a fastener bin or parts van.

Key Features

• Oversized 1.5-inch OD spreads clamping load to reduce material pull-through
• 0.25-inch ID fits standard 1/4-inch screws and bolts
• 0.049-inch thickness provides consistent, low-profile seating
• Zinc-plated steel construction for general-purpose corrosion resistance
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard fastener sizing

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose fender washer for use with 1/4-inch fasteners in standard inch-measurement assemblies across trade and construction applications.

Installation Notes

Install using hand tools appropriate to the mating fastener type. Ensure the washer is seated flat against the substrate before applying torque to the fastener. Zinc-plated washers are not recommended for prolonged exposure to salt spray or highly corrosive environments where a stainless or hot-dip galvanized finish would be more appropriate. No special trade license is required for fastener installation, though applicable building codes should be consulted for structural connections.
