Value Collection LWIS0-50USA-500BX No. 5 Split Lock Washer

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LWIS0-50USA-500BX is a No. 5 split lock washer made from steel with a zinc plated finish. Split lock washers are installed under a fastener nut or bolt head to resist loosening caused by vibration and torque. This washer features an inside diameter of 0.127 to 0.133 inches and an outside diameter of 0.236 to 0.252 inches, with a thickness of 0.031 inches. These washers are sold in a box of 500 units, making them practical for production assembly, maintenance shops, and field service kits. Electricians, mechanics, HVAC technicians, and general contractors use split lock washers as a standard component in bolted connections throughout residential and commercial applications.

This No. 5 split lock washer is suited for use with No. 5 machine screws in light-duty fastening applications. Common installation scenarios include panel assemblies, equipment enclosures, junction boxes, light-gauge metal framing connections, and appliance manufacturing. The zinc plated finish provides a basic level of corrosion resistance appropriate for indoor or protected environments. The 500-piece box quantity supports bulk assembly work and reduces handling time on repetitive fastening tasks.

Installation Notes

Split lock washers are installed by placing the washer over the fastener shank before threading the nut or bolt into the mating part. Ensure the fastener and washer materials are compatible to avoid galvanic corrosion in sensitive environments. Follow applicable mechanical or electrical codes when used in code-governed assemblies. Do not reuse split lock washers that have been fully compressed flat, as they will no longer provide effective locking tension.
