Value Collection FWTUI80501USA-100BX Flat Washer 1/2 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FWTUI80501USA-100BX is an extra thick flat washer designed for use with 1/2 inch fasteners. Manufactured from steel with a Material Grade 8 rating, this washer distributes load across a broader surface area than standard flat washers, reducing the risk of fastener pull-through and surface damage. The yellow zinc dichromate finish provides corrosion resistance suitable for general industrial and mechanical applications. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general contractors use flat washers like this one when securing equipment, brackets, and structural connections where added bearing surface is required.

This extra thick flat washer is appropriate for residential and commercial applications where standard washers do not provide sufficient load distribution. Common install scenarios include securing conduit hangers, pipe supports, equipment mounting plates, and structural fastener assemblies. The 1/2 inch screw size fits standard 1/2 inch bolts and threaded fasteners across a wide range of trade and light industrial uses.

Key Features

• Extra thick profile provides greater load distribution than standard flat washers
• Grade 8 steel construction for high-strength fastener applications
• Yellow zinc dichromate finish resists corrosion in moderate-exposure environments
• 1/2 inch screw size fits standard 1/2 inch bolts and fasteners
• Inch measurement system for compatibility with standard SAE hardware

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or stock fastener component for use with 1/2 inch bolts and screws in general industrial, mechanical, and trade applications.

Installation Notes

Installation does not require specialized tools beyond a standard wrench or socket set appropriate for the fastener size. Power down or de-energize any equipment before servicing fastener connections in electrical or mechanical systems. Ensure the washer seating surface is clean and free of debris before torquing the fastener assembly. Follow applicable codes and equipment manufacturer guidelines for fastener torque requirements.
