Narrow Your Results By:

Low carbon SAE flat washers are essential fasteners that help evenly distribute the load from bolts, nuts, and screws, preventing damage to materials and ensuring secure connections in mechanical assemblies. Made from low-carbon steel, these washers offer a flexible and cost-effective solution for many industries, including automotive, construction, and manufacturing. When finished with Clear Zinc Cr3 plating, these washers gain enhanced corrosion resistance, making them ideal for a variety of environments.

What Are Low Carbon SAE Flat Washers?

Low carbon SAE flat washers are made from mild steel with a low carbon content, offering better flexibility and malleability compared to high-carbon steel washers. These washers follow the SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) standards, ensuring that they have the correct dimensions for specific fastening needs. By distributing the load evenly, these washers prevent material damage caused by pressure from fasteners, providing stability and durability to the assembly.

Inch Sizes of Low Carbon SAE Flat Washers

Low carbon SAE flat washers are available in various inch sizes to accommodate different bolt and nut dimensions. Common sizes include:

  • 1/4 inch

  • 3/8 inch

  • 1/2 inch

  • 5/8 inch

  • 3/4 inch

  • 1 inch

These washers are designed to fit specific bolts, ensuring that the connection is both secure and reliable, with optimal load distribution.

Clear Zinc Cr3 Plating

The Clear Zinc Cr3 plating (Chromium-3) is a protective coating that enhances the washer’s resistance to corrosion, extending its lifespan in harsh environments. Unlike traditional zinc plating, which uses Chromium-6, Cr3 plating is environmentally friendly and compliant with RoHS standards. The clear zinc finish provides a bright, smooth surface that resists rust and corrosion, making these washers perfect for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Applications of Low Carbon SAE Flat Washers

Low carbon SAE flat washers with Clear Zinc Cr3 plating are widely used in automotive, construction, industrial, and outdoor applications. Their corrosion resistance makes them ideal for use in environments exposed to moisture and chemicals.

Low carbon SAE flat washers in inch sizes with Clear Zinc Cr3 plating provide excellent corrosion protection while ensuring reliable load distribution and durability. These washers are a perfect choice for applications requiring secure connections and long-lasting performance in a variety of industries.
