Value Collection USFW0440100OZ Uss Flat Washer 7/16 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION USFW0440100OZ is a USS flat washer designed to distribute load and protect surfaces in bolted and screwed assemblies. Made from steel with a zinc-plated finish, it offers basic corrosion resistance suited for general fastening applications. The washer measures 0.5 inches inside diameter, 1.25 inches outside diameter, and 0.078 inches thick, conforming to USS wide-body proportions that provide a broader bearing surface than SAE-spec washers. Sold in multiples of 100, this washer is a standard hardware item used by tradespeople and contractors across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical work.

This USS flat washer suits residential and light commercial installations where a 7/16 inch fastener requires a wider load-bearing surface. It is appropriate for structural connections, equipment mounting, and general assembly tasks where a broad washer seat helps prevent pull-through or surface damage. The zinc plating provides mild protection against moisture exposure in typical interior or sheltered exterior environments. Installers working with sheet metal frames, equipment pads, and panel supports will find this a routine stock item.

Installation Notes

USS flat washers are installed by general tradespeople, contractors, and maintenance technicians using standard hand or power tools. Always ensure the fastener and washer grade are appropriate for the load requirements of the application. No special tools are required, but fastener torque should follow the specifications of the assembly or applicable code, such as relevant sections of the IPC or NEC for trade installations. Inspect washers for deformation or coating damage before use in moisture-exposed environments.
