Troubleshooting
Washer doesn't fit M12 bolt.
Ensure you are using an M12 bolt or screw. Check if the bolt has any plating or thread damage that might be obstructing the fit.
Surface still shows indentation.
Verify that the washer is flat against the surface and that the bolt is tightened evenly. For very soft materials, consider using a larger diameter washer or a different material.
Visible rust on washers.
This is normal for carbon steel with exposure to moisture. Clean off rust with a wire brush and apply a light coating of oil for protection. Store in a dry place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These washers require no assembly. Simply place them onto an M12 bolt or screw before inserting it through the material you wish to fasten. Ensure the washer is positioned flat against the surface before tightening the bolt or nut.
Compatibility:
These washers are designed specifically for use with M12 sized bolts, screws, and nuts. Using them with fasteners of other sizes may result in an improper fit and reduced effectiveness.
Care:
To maintain the condition of the carbon steel washers, store them in a dry environment. If used in damp conditions or exposed to moisture, wipe them dry after use. A light application of oil can help prevent rust formation on the surface. Periodic inspection for any signs of excessive wear or corrosion is recommended for critical applications.
