Value Collection FWSIS0370-1LBBX Sae Flat Washer

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FWSIS0370-1LBBX is a 3/8 inch SAE flat washer manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. SAE flat washers are used to distribute load across fastener surfaces, reducing the risk of pull-through and surface damage under bolt or nut bearing loads. With an inside diameter of 13/32 inches, an outside diameter of 13/16 inches, and a thickness of 1/16 inch, this washer conforms to SAE dimensional standards. It is a standard hardware component installed by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and mechanical contractors in a wide range of fastening applications.

This washer is suited for general-purpose fastening tasks in both residential and light commercial settings. It is commonly used in structural assemblies, equipment mounting, pipe support bracketing, and panel fastening where a 3/8 inch fastener is specified. The zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion protection appropriate for indoor and sheltered outdoor installations.

Key Features

• SAE flat washer profile for standardized load distribution under 3/8 inch fasteners
• Steel construction for reliable tensile strength in mechanical assemblies
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in typical indoor environments
• Inside diameter of 13/32 inches fits 3/8 inch screws and bolts with standard clearance
• Outside diameter of 13/16 inches distributes clamp load over a broader bearing surface
• Conforms to inch-based SAE dimensional standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard SAE flat washer for use with 3/8 inch screws and bolts in general mechanical and trade fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Install with the appropriate 3/8 inch fastener using standard hand or power tools. Ensure the mating surface is clean and free of debris before seating the washer to maintain proper clamp load. De-energize or isolate any system before performing fastener work in electrical or mechanical enclosures. Do not use this washer in applications requiring stainless steel or higher-grade corrosion resistance without verifying suitability for the environment.
