Value Collection SAEW0120100OZ Sae Flat Washer No 12

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION SAEW0120100OZ is an SAE flat washer designed for use with number 12 screws. It is manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish that provides basic corrosion resistance for general-purpose fastening applications. The washer measures 1/4 inch inner diameter, 9/16 inch outer diameter, and 1/16 inch thick, conforming to SAE dimensional standards. Plumbers, electricians, HVAC technicians, and general contractors use SAE flat washers to distribute load across a fastened joint, prevent surface damage, and reduce the chance of fastener pull-through in softer substrates.

This washer is suited for light-duty and general fastening tasks in residential and commercial construction, mechanical assemblies, electrical panel work, and equipment mounting. The SAE profile features a smaller outer diameter relative to USS (standard) washers, making it well suited for tighter clearance applications and close-tolerance assemblies. It is sold individually with a minimum order quantity of 100 pieces, making it appropriate for stocking in shop inventory or replenishing job-site fastener supplies.

Key Features

• SAE dimensional standard — smaller OD profile for close-tolerance and tight-clearance installations
• Steel construction with zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance
• Fits number 12 screws with a 1/4 inch inner diameter
• 1/16 inch thickness provides consistent load distribution without adding significant stack height
• Minimum order quantity of 100 pieces suits bulk stocking and job-site supply

Compatibility

Designed for use with number 12 screws. SAE flat washers of this size are commonly used in general mechanical, electrical, and construction fastening assemblies that require inch-system hardware.

Installation Notes

Install using standard hand tools appropriate for the fastener type. Ensure the washer is seated flat against the substrate before tightening to achieve proper load distribution. Zinc plating provides limited corrosion resistance — avoid use in continuously wet or highly corrosive environments where stainless or galvanized hardware would be more appropriate. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer fastener specifications for the assembly being serviced.
