Value Collection R63092644 Flat Washer No 8 Brass

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION R63092644 is a number 8 screw standard flat washer manufactured from brass with a plain finish. Flat washers distribute the load of a threaded fastener across a broader surface area, reducing the risk of pull-through and protecting the mating material from damage during assembly. This washer measures 0.172 inches inner diameter, 0.4375 inches outer diameter, and 0.036 inches thick. The brass construction provides corrosion resistance in environments where steel hardware would deteriorate. It is a stock fastener hardware item suited for low-volume or single-piece use, sold individually.

This washer is used with number 8 fasteners across a broad range of assembly and installation tasks in plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and general mechanical applications. Its brass material makes it a practical choice in moist or corrosive environments, including fixture mounting, panel assembly, and equipment installation where ferrous hardware is not appropriate. The plain finish means it ships without any additional coating or plating applied to the base brass material.

Installation Notes

Flat washers of this size are installed by plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general mechanical trades during fixture and equipment assembly. Place the washer over the fastener shank before seating the nut or driving the screw. Ensure the mating surface is clean and free of debris before assembly. Do not overtighten fasteners against brass washers, as the material is softer than steel and can deform under excessive clamp load.
