This Burnham Commercial flat washer is a hardware component designed to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a screw or nut. It is typically used to prevent damage to surfaces and ensure an even distribution of pressure when tightening. The washer is made from durable materials that resist corrosion and wear, making it suitable for use in a variety of commercial applications. Its flat shape provides a larger surface area for load distribution, reducing the risk of material deformation under high-pressure situations. The Burnham Commercial flat washer also aids in reducing friction during the tightening process, contributing to the longevity of the fastener and the assembly it's used in.
