Types of Shear Plate Washers We Offer

Shear Plate Washer Malleable

Malleable shear plate washers are designed to reinforce wood-to-wood and wood-to-steel connections in heavy construction. Their malleable iron composition provides both strength and durability, making them reliable under heavy loads. These washers are often used in timber construction and utility projects where stability and secure fastening are essential. Contractors choose them when raw strength and proven performance are required for structural work.

Shear Plate Washer Malleable HDG

Hot-dip galvanized malleable shear plate washers combine the strength of malleable iron with a thick zinc coating for maximum corrosion resistance. This finish makes them well-suited for outdoor, marine, and infrastructure applications where exposure to weather is unavoidable. Builders use them in bridges, docks, and timber structures where both load-bearing capability and long-term protection are critical. Their rugged design and protective coating ensure dependable performance in harsh environments.

Material Options

South Coast Fasteners stocks shear plate washers in cast iron, a material known for its strength, durability, and ability to handle high compressive forces.

Cast Iron

Cast iron shear plate washers are built to last in the toughest conditions. Their solid, rugged design allows them to be embedded directly into wood, transferring loads across a larger surface area and reducing the risk of splitting or localized failure. Contractors trust cast iron for its stability under stress, making it the go-to material for timber construction, foundations, and other structural applications that demand consistent performance over time.

Available Finishes

South Coast Fasteners offers shear plate washers in finishes that ensure long-term durability and protection against environmental wear.

Hot Dip Galvanize

Hot dip galvanized shear plate washers feature a heavy zinc coating that guards against rust and corrosion. This finish is ideal for outdoor and exposed environments such as bridges, decks, and large timber structures. The protective layer bonds tightly to the cast iron, ensuring the washer continues to perform for decades in conditions that would quickly degrade untreated hardware.
