Value Collection FWUIB0-8-100BX No 8 Brass Flat Washer 100-pack

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION FWUIB0-8-100BX is a standard flat washer sized for number 8 fasteners, manufactured from brass with a plain finish. It measures 0.172 inches inner diameter, 0.4375 inches outer diameter, and 0.032 inches thick. These washers distribute load across the bearing surface of a fastener, reduce friction under a nut or bolt head, and protect mating surfaces from damage during tightening. They are sold in a box of 100 and suit applications where a non-ferrous, corrosion-resistant washer is required. Plumbers, electricians, and mechanical contractors commonly stock brass hardware to avoid galvanic corrosion in mixed-metal assemblies.

Number 8 flat washers in brass are used across plumbing rough-in, electrical panel and fixture mounting, HVAC equipment assembly, and general sheet-metal work where steel hardware would introduce corrosion risk. The plain finish leaves the brass surface uncoated, which is appropriate for interior installations and for applications where the washer will be hidden within an assembly. Sold in a box quantity of 100, this SKU suits service trucks, shop bins, and job-site inventory restocking.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools beyond standard hand or power drivers. Place the washer over the fastener shank before seating the nut or bolt head against the work surface. Verify that mating materials are compatible with brass before installation to prevent galvanic corrosion. Follow applicable NEC, IPC, or IFGC provisions when using fasteners and hardware in code-governed assemblies.
