Value Collection LWHIS0250USA-100BX Split Lock Washer 100pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LWHIS0250USA-100BX is a Grade 2 spring steel split lock washer designed for 1/4 inch screw applications. The split ring design bites into the fastener and mating surface under load, resisting loosening caused by vibration or torque relaxation. A zinc plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance for general-purpose use. This box contains 100 washers, making it a practical quantity for shop stock or field inventory. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals working with standard 1/4 inch fastener assemblies will find this a straightforward, reliable hardware staple.

Split lock washers of this type are used across residential and light commercial applications wherever standard 1/4 inch fasteners require anti-loosening protection. Common install scenarios include equipment mounting, panel assembly, pipe hanger hardware, and general mechanical fastening in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. The inch-system sizing and Grade 2 material classification place this washer squarely in everyday domestic hardware service rather than high-stress or military-spec environments.

Installation Notes

Split lock washers are installed between the fastener head or nut and the mating surface, with the open gap oriented so the edges engage both surfaces when the fastener is torqued down. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fastener points in electrical or mechanical panels. Use standard hand or power tools appropriate for the fastener drive type. Do not reuse a split lock washer that has been fully flattened, as it will no longer provide effective locking action.
