SS Rectangle Washer
SS Rectangle Washer
An SS Rectangle Washer is a flat, rectangular-shaped washer made from stainless steel (SS).
It features a central hole (round, square, or customized) to fit a bolt, screw, or stud.
Unlike standard round washers, rectangular washers provide greater surface coverage and enhanced load distribution — making them ideal for applications where large or uneven bearing surfaces are involved.
Function:
-
Spreads the load over a wider or irregular surface to prevent damage or indentation.
-
Protects softer materials (like wood, aluminum, or composites) from being crushed or pulled through by bolt heads or nuts.
-
The rectangular shape offers greater stability under vibration and movement compared to round washers.
-
Reinforces the connection area, ensuring a firm and stable joint in structural and heavy-duty assemblies.
Applications:
-
Structural steel fabrication and construction
-
Heavy machinery and equipment mounting
-
Electrical and cable tray supports
-
Marine, oil & gas, and offshore industries
-
Railways and bridge assemblies
-
Concrete anchoring systems
