Additional notes

A Washer is a thin plate with a hole that is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener. They are designed to evenly distribute the pressure of a nut or bolt over a surface. It is used to protect the surface from damage by offering space between the surface and fastener. They are generally used to securely fasten a nut or bolt to a surface to prevent loosening under vibratory environments. Flat washers are round outer diameter thin plates with a center hole punched to the size of the bolt or screw. It is made up of cold rolled steel, the cold rolling process increases the yield strength and hardness of the metal. The material offers outstanding properties including easy formability, smooth and clean surface. The high dimensional accuracy ensures a perfect fit of the parts as per the requirement and it is free from any burrs and sharp edges which enhances the safety aspect of the component. The GE product is an Innovation and technology which fits well into versatile customer needs. It is manufactured using high precision techniques which helps to achieve a good surface finish as well as good product consistency.
