    Tooth Lock Washers

    Grip tighter than split lock washers to prevent nuts and screws from loosening in applications with constant movement, such as conveyors. Tooth lock washers typically can't be reused because the teeth often get bent when tightened.

    Teeth on the outside edge bite into both the fastener and the mating surface for a stronger hold than internal-tooth lock washers. However, they may mar your material and snag on objects. Pair these washers with nuts and screws that are large enough to make contact with the teeth, such as pan, button, and binding head screws.
    18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these washers won't rust when exposed to moisture. However, they can't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
    Super-Corrosion-Resistant 316 Stainless Steel—Superior to 18-8 stainless steel, these washers won't degrade when exposed to harsh weather, salt water, and most chemicals.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A common choice for areas with occasional exposure to moisture.
    DIN 6798—Best for slightly bumpy or irregular surfaces because the teeth are angled to make even contact with the material.

    Countersunk Tooth Lock Washers

    These washers grip flat- and oval-head countersunk screws, so you get a secure hold without overtightening. They resist loosening in applications with constant motion, such as conveyors. Tooth lock washers typically can't be reused because the teeth often get bent when tightened.

    For Chamfered Nuts

    Designed for use with bearing nuts, these lock washers have a conical shape that presses like a spring against bearings, bushings, gears, and pulleys to hold them in place on your threaded shaft or spindle. They also have an inner tab that sits in the shaft or spindle’s keyway to prevent the nut from loosening.
    Steel—Steel washers are strong and flexible.
    External Tooth—Washers with external teeth grip components using their teeth, in addition to spring tension.
    DIN 5406—DIN 462 and DIN 5406 washers meet international standards for lock washer dimensions. Pair DIN 462 washers with DIN 1804 bearing nuts, and DIN 5406 washers with DIN 981 bearing nuts.
