Washer, Zinc-Plated DIN 125A, 8 mm (by kg) — No name, MPN 005 8 ZN

Zinc-plated flat washer conforming to DIN 125A, sized for use with 8 mm fasteners and supplied by the kilogram. The washer is a thin, round metal plate with a central hole that distributes load and reduces surface wear when used with bolts, screws and other threaded fasteners. The zinc plating provides a protective layer to improve corrosion resistance in typical indoor and sheltered outdoor environments.

Advantages

The zinc coating offers sacrificial protection against corrosion and improves longevity compared with untreated steel washers. The DIN 125A profile ensures consistent outer and inner dimensions for compatibility with standard 8 mm bolts and screws. Supplied by weight, these washers are practical for bulk use in assembly lines, maintenance shops and construction sites where many small components are required.

Suitable for

• Load distribution and surface protection for 8 mm bolts and screws
• Mechanical assemblies and machinery fastening
• Construction fixtures, brackets and structural joints
• Repair and maintenance tasks in workshops and facilities

Key specifications

• Standard: DIN 125A flat washer profile
• Inner diameter: for 8 mm fasteners (suitable for M8)
• Material: steel with zinc electroplating
• Finish: zinc-plated (bright or passivated zinc layer)
• Supply unit: sold and priced by the kilogram for bulk use

How to use

Select the washer size that matches the fastener diameter and place the washer between the fastener head (or nut) and the mating surface before tightening. Ensure the mating surfaces are clean and that washers sit flat to distribute clamping force evenly. Avoid overtightening which can deform thin flat washers or damage coated surfaces; tighten fasteners to appropriate torque values for the bolt grade and application.

Usage recommendations

For exterior or high-corrosion environments consider additional corrosion protection or alternative materials such as stainless steel. When used in assemblies with painted or coated parts, check for compatibility of coatings to avoid galvanic corrosion. Store washers in a dry place to preserve the zinc layer and handle in quantities appropriate for the intended project to reduce waste.
