Maximize holding power and corrosion resistance with our Fender Washers made from Type 304 Stainless Steel, engineered with an extra-large outside diameter (OD) for superior load distribution and protection of softer materials. These premium-grade washers are ideal for marine, plumbing, electrical, and finishing applications where durability, appearance, and strength are critical.
Oversized Outside Diameter (OD):
Designed to spread the load of a fastener over a much larger surface area than standard flat washers. This makes them ideal for use with thin, soft, or fragile materials such as sheet metal, fiberglass, wood, or plastic—preventing pull-through and surface deformation.
Premium Type 304 Stainless Steel:
Made from high-quality AISI 304 (18-8) stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance, even in wet, humid, or mildly chemical environments. This austenitic stainless alloy provides a clean, polished appearance and won't rust or stain like carbon steel.
Multi-Use, Industrial Strength:
Though commonly used in light-duty applications, these washers are also robust enough for industrial environments thanks to stainless steel’s strength and hardness. They maintain mechanical integrity across a wide temperature range.
Smooth, Non-Marring Surface:
Rounded edges and a smooth surface prevent scratching of finished surfaces—perfect for applications where aesthetics and precision matter.
Marine & Boat Hardware: Saltwater-resistant fastener backing
Electrical Panel Assembly: Reinforcing thin metal enclosures
HVAC & Ducting: Securing sheet metal without deformation
