    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.
    Internal and External Tooth

    The strongest hold of all our tooth lock washers, these combine internal and external teeth to boost gripping power. However, the teeth may mar your material and snag on objects. Pair these washers with fasteners that are large enough to make contact with the external teeth, such as pan, button, and binding head screws.
    Wear-Resistant 410 Stainless Steel—These grip hard material better than other types of stainless steel. They are not as corrosion resistant as 18-8 and 316 stainless steel, so they are best for environments that experience occasional moisture.

    Mil. Spec. Tooth Lock Washers

    These washers are manufactured and tested to strict U.S. military standards for material and construction. They resist vibration better 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.
    External Tooth
    Image of Product. Bottom orientation. Lock Washers. Tooth Washer, Mil. Spec., External Tooth.
    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.

    Internal Tooth
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Lock Washers. Tooth Washer, Mil. Spec., Internal Tooth.
    Internal teeth dig into the nut or screw to prevent it from backing out. Unlike external-tooth lock washers, these have a smooth outside edge, so they are less likely to mar your material or snag on objects. However, they don’t grip quite as well. Pair them with fasteners that have small diameters, such as fillister and cheese head screws.
