Value Collection SAEW0060100OZ Sae Flat Washer No. 6

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SAEW0060100OZ is a No. 6 screw SAE flat washer made from steel with a zinc-plated finish. SAE flat washers provide a standard bearing surface under bolt heads and nuts, distributing load and reducing surface damage during fastening. This washer measures 5/32 inches inner diameter, 3/8 inches outer diameter, and 0.036 inches thick. The zinc plating delivers basic corrosion resistance suited to indoor and light-duty applications. Tradespersons in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical assembly use SAE flat washers routinely when fastening sheet metal panels, equipment enclosures, and structural components.

This washer is suited for use with No. 6 machine screws and bolts in residential and light commercial applications. Typical install scenarios include securing equipment access panels, junction boxes, mounting brackets, and control board assemblies. The SAE profile provides a moderately sized bearing surface that works across a wide range of substrates including sheet metal and light-gauge steel. The inch measurement system makes it directly compatible with standard SAE fastener sets used throughout mechanical and electrical trades.

Key Features

• SAE flat washer profile sized for No. 6 screws
• 5/32 inches inner diameter fits No. 6 machine screw shanks
• 3/8 inches outer diameter provides consistent load distribution
• 0.036 inches thickness meets SAE standard dimensional requirements
• Zinc-plated steel construction for basic corrosion resistance
• Inch measurement system compatible with standard SAE fastener sets

Compatibility

Designed for use with No. 6 machine screws and bolts in SAE inch-measurement fastener assemblies across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

SAE flat washers are installed by placing them over the fastener shank before seating the nut or driving the screw. Power down any electrical equipment and relieve system pressure before servicing panels or assemblies that require fastener removal. Use appropriate hand tools and follow applicable codes such as the NEC for electrical enclosures or IFGC for gas equipment panels. Avoid overtightening fasteners, which can distort the washer or damage the mating surface.
