What Are Metallic Washers?

Metallic washers are durable, thin discs typically used to distribute load, prevent wear, or provide spacing in mechanical assemblies. Made from a wide range of metals, these washers are essential for structural integrity, vibration control, and maintaining tight tolerances in critical components.

At Stephens Gaskets, we manufacture both standard and custom metallic washers using a variety of materials, each chosen for specific mechanical and environmental requirements.

When strength, stability, and long-term durability matter, metallic washers offer clear advantages:

1. Load Distribution

Prevents stress concentrations on fasteners and surfaces.

2. Wear Protection

Shields surfaces from abrasion and damage.

3. Heat Resistance

Withstands high temperatures in industrial environments.

4. Corrosion Resistance

Available in materials suited for wet or corrosive settings.

5. Electrical Conductivity

Perfect for electrical and grounding applications.

6. High Load Capacity

Handles heavier loads compared to non-metallic alternatives.
