MIDWEST FASTENER CORP 63386 Fender Washer #8 18-8 Stainless Steel

SKU CH-BCVM-31SQC

A thinner washer with a larger outside diameter to increase surface bearing for #8 bolts in 18-8 stainless steel

  • Product typeWashers
  • Larger diameter spreads load over wider area
  • 18-8 stainless steel resists corrosion in damp conditions
  • Thinner profile fits tight assemblies without binding
  • Model 63386 matches #8 bolt size precisely
  • New hardware ensures clean threads and full strength

Application Fit

This MIDWEST FASTENER fender washer is designed for #8 bolt sizes and provides a larger outside diameter to increase surface bearing. The 18-8 stainless steel construction offers general corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor use. It suits automotive, marine, and general repair tasks where load distribution is needed.

Suitability Limits

Buyers needing thicker washers for heavy structural loads should look at standard flat washers instead. Projects requiring higher-grade stainless alloys for aggressive chemical exposure will need a different material specification. This hardware is not intended for precision spacing or locking applications.

Critical Specification

The defining detail is the #8 bolt fit combined with the fender-style oversized outer diameter. This specific geometry spreads clamping force over a wider area than a standard washer. Confirm your bolt size matches #8 before ordering.

Questions about this item

How does the thinner profile of the #8 fender washer affect load distribution under sustained clamping force?

The thinner design with larger outside diameter increases surface bearing area to spread the load over more material, reducing local stress on the joint.

Will the 18-8 stainless steel washer gall or generate excess heat during repeated tightening cycles?

18-8 stainless steel resists galling and does not produce measurable heat during normal fastener installation or daily vibration.

What bolt diameter and thread pitch must I already have for the #8 fender washer to function correctly?

The washer fits a #8 bolt size; match the thread pitch of your existing #8 fastener for proper engagement.
