Description
    1. Function: The washer serves as a spacer and protector between the head of the mounting screw and the surface of the component being fastened. It helps distribute the load exerted by the screw, reducing the risk of damage to the surface and providing a more secure connection.
    2. Design: The washer is typically a flat, circular disk with a central hole matching the diameter of the mounting screw. It is designed to fit snugly against the surface of the component being fastened, ensuring even distribution of pressure and preventing the screw head from digging into or damaging the surface.
    3. Material: Washers for mounting screws are commonly made from durable materials such as steel, stainless steel, or nylon. The choice of material depends on factors such as the application requirements, environmental conditions, and desired level of corrosion resistance.
    4. Installation: The washer is placed over the threaded portion of the mounting screw before inserting the screw into the pre-drilled hole in the component being fastened. It acts as a protective barrier between the screw head and the surface, ensuring a secure and stable connection without damaging the surface.
    5. Applications: Washers for mounting screws are used in various applications across industries such as construction, manufacturing, automotive, and electronics. They are particularly useful in applications where a secure and stable connection is required, and surface protection is essential.
