Value Collection LWIS025USA-500BX Split Lock Washer 500pk

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION LWIS025USA-500BX is a 1/4 inch steel split lock washer sold in a 500-piece box. This helical spring-type washer is designed to resist loosening caused by vibration and torque relaxation in bolted assemblies. It seats between a fastener head or nut and the mating surface, biting into both to maintain clamping force. The washer is uncoated with a bright finish and carries no military specification rating. Licensed trades and general contractors use these in mechanical, structural, and equipment-mounting applications where standard flat washers alone are insufficient.

This split lock washer fits 1/4 inch screws and bolts across a wide range of light-duty to medium-duty fastening applications. Typical uses include panel mounting, equipment frames, junction box hardware, HVAC unit assembly, plumbing fixture brackets, and general mechanical assembly work. The bright uncoated finish makes it suitable for indoor or protected environments. The 500-piece box quantity supports job-site stock, service van inventory, or shop bench supply for trades requiring high-volume fastener replenishment.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no special tools beyond a standard wrench or driver appropriate for the fastener being used. Place the washer between the fastener head or nut and the mating surface before tightening. Do not reuse split lock washers that have been fully compressed flat, as they will no longer provide effective spring tension. Always power down or isolate equipment before accessing fastened assemblies on energized or pressurized systems.
