USS Washers (Flat)

USS washers, or United States Standard washers, are designed with larger outer diameters to spread the load over a greater surface area. They are well suited for heavy-duty fastening in construction, industrial machinery, and equipment assembly where stability and durability are essential. USS washers help protect materials from bolt or nut pull-through and maintain joint integrity under high stress.

SAE Washers (Flat)

SAE washers, or Society of Automotive Engineers washers, feature smaller outer diameters and tighter tolerances than USS washers. They are widely used in automotive, machinery, and precision equipment where accuracy and compact size are critical. SAE washers provide even load distribution without taking up unnecessary space, making them a preferred choice in applications where alignment and reliability matter most.

Fender Washers (Flat)

Fender washers are characterized by their oversized outer diameters, which distribute load over an even larger area than USS washers. They are commonly used with softer materials such as sheet metal, wood, plastics, and fiberglass. By covering more surface area, fender washers prevent fastener pull-through and add stability to joints that may otherwise be vulnerable. These washers are frequently used in automotive bodywork, appliance manufacturing, and light fabrication.
