Heavy Duty Washers – Essential for Structural Fastening and High Load Applications
Heavy duty washers are used in engineering, construction, and heavy machinery, every component must be designed to withstand extreme stress. These washers are built not just for size or fit, but for performance under pressure.
At Nafees Metal Industries, we manufacture and supply precision-engineered heavy duty washers to ensure maximum durability and stability in your high-load applications.
What Are Heavy Duty Washers?
Heavy duty washers are thick, durable flat washers made from robust metals like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steel. Their primary role is to:
Distribute large clamping loads
Resist deformation under torque
Protect structural components from wear
Unlike standard washers, structural washers are made to support larger bolts (typically M16 and above) and endure stress from weight-bearing and vibration-heavy assemblies.
Where Are Heavy Duty Washers Used?
They are indispensable in applications like:
Steel structure assemblies (bridges, buildings, towers)
Heavy machinery and equipment mounting
Railways and highways infrastructure
Oil & gas pipelines
Wind turbine and solar panel installations
Shipbuilding and mining operations
If your project requires fasteners that won’t loosen or fail over time, high strength washers are the answer.
Key Features of Heavy Duty Washers
At Nafees Metal Industries, our washers are designed with critical tolerances and quality checks. Key features include:
1. Thicker Profiles
Ranging from 2mm to 10mm or more
Adds durability for repeated tightening or high pressure
2. Wide Outer Diameters
Provides greater load distribution
Compatible with structural bolts and nuts
3. Material Strength
Made from MS, SS 304/316, carbon steel, alloy steel
Heat-treated for added hardness when needed
4. Corrosion Resistance
Available with zinc plating, hot-dip galvanizing, or self-colored finishes for outdoor use
Testing and Standards Compliance
All our heavy duty washers undergo thorough testing for:
- Hardness
Dimensional accuracy
Surface finish
Coating thickness
Rust resistance (Salt Spray Test)
- We manufacture washers as per IS 6649, ASTM F436, DIN 7989, and other global standards. Material test certificates are available on request.
Available Sizes and Custom Options
We produce washers from M16 to M72 or even larger, depending on the project scope.
| Type | ID Range | Thickness |
|---|---|---|
| Flat Structural Washer | M16–M72 | 2 mm–12 mm |
| Punched or Machined | Custom | As required |
Need a custom heavy washer with specific load-bearing capacity? We deliver to exact drawings and load specifications.
Choosing the Best Heavy Duty Washer for Structural Fastening
When selecting washers for structural use, keep the following in mind:
Washer thickness – Should match or exceed bolt capacity
Material – Choose stainless or galvanized for outdoor use
Load-bearing application – Evaluate static vs dynamic load conditions
Standard – Check if your project specifies DIN, ASTM, or IS standards
If in doubt, our technical team will help you choose the best heavy duty washers for structural fastening.
