The SS8 M16 Spring Lock Washers are designed for industrial professionals, automotive technicians, and DIY enthusiasts who require secure, vibration-resistant fastening solutions for 16mm bolts. These washers utilize a continuous radial spring force to prevent hardware from loosening under dynamic loads, providing enhanced reliability for critical connections. While these washers provide exceptional stability, it is important to note that they are intended for single-use compression and should generally be replaced if a fastener is removed after initial tightening.

It is not recommended. Once a spring washer has been fully compressed and then loosened, it loses its original spring tension and should be replaced to ensure the joint remains secure.
Yes, the zinc-plated finish provides good corrosion resistance, making them suitable for most outdoor applications, though they should be protected from harsh, acidic, or saltwater environments.
The washer should be installed flat against the component surface, with the bolt head pressing against the top of the washer.
No, these are precisely sized for 16mm hardware. Using them on incorrect bolt sizes will result in poor fitment and ineffective locking performance.
These are manufactured from steel with a protective zinc plating for increased longevity.
Verify that the washer has not been previously compressed; if it does not exhibit spring-like resistance, it has reached its fatigue limit and should be replaced.
Ensure the washer is properly seated and compressed; if vibrations are extreme, consider using a thread-locking compound in addition to the spring washer.
To install, slide the M16 spring washer onto the bolt shank before threading the bolt into the nut or tapped hole. Ensure the washer sits flat against the mating surface. Tighten the fastener until the washer is fully compressed to engage the spring locking mechanism. These washers are compatible with standard M16 bolts and nuts. To maintain their corrosion resistance, keep them in a dry environment and avoid using abrasive cleaning chemicals that might strip the zinc plating. Replace the washers whenever you perform maintenance that requires loosening and re-tightening of the main fasteners.
