Galvanised Star Washer

Description

A galvanized star washer is a type of washer designed for securing bolts or screws in place while also providing a locking function. These washers feature a star-shaped design with multiple points or “teeth” around the inner diameter. When installed between the bolt head or nut and the surface being fastened, the teeth of the washer bite into the material, creating resistance against loosening due to vibrations or movement. The galvanized coating provides corrosion resistance, protecting the washer from rust and degradation, particularly in outdoor or harsh environments. Galvanized star washers are commonly used in construction, automotive, and machinery applications where secure and reliable fastening is essential. They offer an effective solution for preventing nuts and bolts from loosening over time, ensuring the integrity of the assembly.
