Sutemribor Sutemribor-Flat-Washers 1/4-Inch Stainless Flat Washers, 304 Steel, 110-Pack

For repairs using 1/4-inch screws or bolts, a washer needs to fit the fastener and provide a broader bearing surface beneath the bolt head or nut. This Sutemribor set includes 110 flat washers made from 304 stainless steel.

Each washer measures 0.28 inches inside diameter, 0.623 inches outside diameter, and 0.055 inches thick. The pack is a single size, rather than a mix for different fasteners.

Would a single-size pack suit the job? It can be practical when the hardware is already specified and you want matching washers on hand, the measurements are the key detail to compare before choosing.

At a glance

These are silver, 304 stainless steel flat washers for use with 1/4-inch screws and bolts. The 110-piece quantity suits a repair or project that needs several matching pieces, with extras available for future work. Their stated dimensions provide a straightforward way to check fit: 0.28 inches inside diameter, 0.623 inches outside diameter, and 0.055 inches thickness.

A flat washer sits under a bolt head or nut to create a smoother bearing surface and spread the fastener load over a wider area. The product information also describes the washers as useful for reducing friction during tightening. That makes them relevant to common fastening tasks where a fastener would otherwise bear directly against the material.

How to use it

Place a washer beneath the head of a compatible screw or bolt, or beneath its nut, so it rests between the fastener and the work surface. Match the washer to the hardware and the space available: this set is sized for 1/4-inch screws and bolts, and its listed inside diameter is 0.28 inches. A different fastener size calls for a washer selected to match that size instead.

The 304 stainless steel construction is described as providing corrosion resistance, including in less favorable environments. That may be useful for projects that are exposed to moisture or used outdoors, although the information provided does not specify a particular exposure rating or service life. The package is a clear plastic box, which can help keep the small parts together between tasks. Store them where they will not be mixed with washers of other sizes.

Everyday use

For example, during a furniture repair, one of these washers can go between a bolt head and the furniture material to spread the contact area. The same basic placement applies to mechanical repairs, crafts, and other fastening work listed for this product. Its single-size format is less flexible than a mixed assortment, but it keeps the selection simple when a project consistently calls for 1/4-inch hardware.

The dimensions matter as much as the nominal size. Check that the 0.28-inch opening fits the fastener and that the 5/8-inch outside-diameter class, listed more precisely as 0.623 inches, provides the bearing area needed for the material. The 0.055-inch thickness is also worth considering where clearance is limited. These are small parts, so keep them away from children.

When it makes sense

It makes sense if your work calls for a supply of matching 1/4-inch flat washers and you value the stated 304 stainless steel material. The set can serve a household repair kit, a furniture or mechanical project, or other work where the fastener size and washer dimensions are known. The quantity is also useful when several fasteners in one project need the same washer.

Not the best choice if your screws or bolts are a different size, or if you need several washer sizes in one package. In those cases, a correctly sized alternative or a mixed-size assortment is a more direct fit. For a defined 1/4-inch fastening job, compare the listed diameter and thickness with the hardware and available clearance before selecting this set.
