1 2 spring washer

It might be a little flat, round piece of steel — that little bit of nothing sitting next to that screw or bolt. This is a small piece of metal called a spring washer and it is crucial in finding what keeps things from getting loose over time and maintaining good functionality!

A spring washer's primary function is to prevent screws or bolts from loosening. A screw, or a bolt, if it’s tightened, is supposed to keep everything in place. But sometimes it can come loose with shaking or movement over time. That is where the spring washer comes in! A spring washer adds some additional tension between the screw or bolt and the surface it is attached to. This extra tension ensures everything is nice and secured where it's supposed to be.

Choosing the Right Size and Material for Your 1 2 Spring Washer

Because you are using it with a bolt or screw, the size of the spring washer is very crucial. A washer that’s too small doesn’t hold tight, and one that’s too big won’t fit. So you can visualize what I mean it's like putting on a shoe that's either too snug or too loose – it simply won't fit!

You should also consider the material of the washer. Some tasks are better with one material than another. Stainless steel, for instance, is considered ideal for outdoor jobs as it melts less and suits varying weather conditions. On the opposite end of the spectrum, with materials like brass or plastic, you may be able to use these for indoor projects where they tend to be lighter but still can accomplish the job.
