Metric Zinc Plated Steel Fender Washers

How do I size metric zinc fender washers?

Metric zinc plated fender washers combine a wide bearing surface, which stops nuts and bolt heads from pulling through thin material, with metric sizing and an economical zinc finish. They suit metric automotive, imported hardware, and general assembly in dry and mild conditions. Match the washer to your metric bolt size, such as M6, M8, or M10. For wet, coastal, or chloride exposure where the zinc would eventually corrode, step up to metric A2 or A4 stainless.

Why choose metric zinc plated fender washers

• Wide bearing: oversized diameter resists pull-through in thin material.
• Metric sizing: matched to M-series bolt diameters.
• Economical: cost-effective zinc finish for common jobs.
• Corrosion resistant: zinc plating protects better than bare steel.

Common applications for metric zinc fender washers

• Metric thin sheet and panel work
• Imported and automotive hardware
• Oversized and slotted metric holes
