    Split Lock Washers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Lock Washers. Split-Lock Washer.
    Stop nuts and screws from loosening due to mild vibration. As you tighten, the uneven ends bite into the nut or screw so it won't back out. While they're not as vibration resistant as other lock washers, they are a great fit for electrical panels, light fixtures, and other light duty assemblies. Split lock washers are not reusable, and they only work with fasteners that have right-hand threads.

    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.
    External Tooth
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Lock Washers. Tooth Washer, 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.

    Heavy-Vibration-Resistant Spring Lock Washers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Lock Washers. Spring Lock Washer, Conical Washer.
    With a grip that's second only to wedge lock, these washers stop nuts and screws from wiggling loose under constant, vigorous vibration. They are ideal for engines, turbines, generators, and other heavy duty equipment. Similar to a spring, they flatten under pressure to add tension between mating surfaces. As long as the washers aren't deformed or otherwise damaged, you can reuse them indefinitely without losing locking strength. Also known as conical washers and Belleville washers.
    Stack multiple washers in the same direction to double or triple how much weight they can bear. Stack washers in opposite directions for better deflection, which means they compress further and withstand more shock and movement without loosening.
    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.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause these washers to rust.
    DIN 432—These washers have a small tab that presses up against the flats of your nut or screw for extra security.

    Heavy-Vibration-Resistant Spring Lock Washers for Socket Head Screws

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Lock Washers. Conical Washer, For Socket Head Screws, Spring Lock Washer.
    Stop socket head screws from wiggling loose on equipment with constant, vigorous vibration, such as engines, turbines, and generators. These washers have a small diameter to fit under screws with narrow heads. Similar to a spring, they flatten under pressure to add tension between mating surfaces. As long as the washers aren't deformed or otherwise damaged, you can reuse them indefinitely without losing locking strength. Also known as conical washers and Belleville washers.
    Stack multiple washers in the same direction to double or triple how much weight they can bear. Stack washers in opposite directions for better deflection, which means they compress further and withstand more shock and movement without loosening.
    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.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A common choice for areas with occasional exposure to moisture.
    Steel—Best for dry environments since moisture will cause these washers to rust.
    Top-and-Bottom Serration—Adds friction for extra gripping power.

    Curved Spring Lock Washers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Lock Washers. Curved Washer, Spring Lock Washer.
    The curvy, spring-like shape adds a small amount of tension to prevent nuts and screws from backing out due to mild vibration. These washers also flex slightly to compensate for uneven surfaces. While more secure than a standard flat washer, these have the least amount of gripping power of all our lock washers. They are best suited for electrical panels, light fixtures, and other light duty assemblies. These washers hold their shape when untightened, so you can reuse them a handful of times without losing strength.
    Zinc-Plated Steel—A common choice for areas with occasional exposure to moisture.
    DIN 128A—These washers have split ends that bite into your material surface for a tighter hold than other curved washers.

    Extreme-Vibration-Resistant Wedge Lock Washers

    When it's critical to keep bolted assemblies secure, choose these two-piece lock washers with the tightest grip of all. They stop nuts and screws from loosening in heavy machinery that experiences jarring starts and stops, such as compressors and compactors. Serrations on the outside bite into the fastener and mating surfaces, while wedges on the inside lock the two pieces together. When the nut or screw starts to loosen, the wedges drive more tightly together to maintain tension. You can reuse these washers up to fifteen times, as long as the serrations and wedges are not worn down. They are comparable to NORD-LOCK® or Sherex TEC® washers.

    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.
    Super-Corrosion-Resistant Zinc-Flake-Coated Steel—With 40 times the corrosion resistance of zinc-plated steel, these withstand rust as well as 316 stainless steel. They have been tested to extreme standards, including 1,000 hours of salt spray. They are similar to Magni-coated washers.

    Sealing Washers

    Prevent leaks while distributing weight evenly under nuts and screws. These washers compress as you tighten to keep air and fluid in, and dust and contaminants out. Use them anywhere you need a tight seal, such as protecting electronics from moisture or keeping lubricants contained in machinery.
    Rubber

    Also known as crush washers, these are made of soft metal that deforms under pressure to fill gaps around the nut or screw. Often found in oil drain valves, they withstand stress and wear better than plastic and rubber washers, but aren't as leak-resistant. Metal sealing washers are not reusable.
    Copper—Softer than aluminum washers, these deform easily to create a tight seal with less effort. They resist rusting in corrosive environments, but will develop a green patina over time.
    Cellulose-Filled Copper—The easiest washers to crush. These washers are embedded with cellulose, which makes them more flexible than other metal washers for a tighter seal. They resist rusting in corrosive environments, but will develop a green patina over time.
    Aluminum—These washers are an economical alternative to copper. They have similar corrosion resistance but require more effort to crush.
