The flat washer is probably one of the most basic tools in the world of DIY. But despite its simple appearance, this piece is largely underestimated by amateurs. In fact, most fastening defects are due to the weakening of the support as a result of excessive tightening or poorly located drilling.
The washer is the tool that significantly improves the reliability and longevity of your work. Indeed, the more or less large surface (4 standardized widths: narrow, normal, wide, and extra-wide) allows the washer to absorb and distribute almost all of the compression effort to the support. This results in better resistance and a lower risk of breakage when you tighten your nut or bolt.
Washers are generally made of steel because it is a dense and very strong material. However, it is not so rare to find washers made of brass, which provide increased flexibility to the fastening, or stainless steel for outdoor use.
Finally, there is no need to stack a flat washer and a toothed washer; this combination is quite common in the DIY world. And make sure to choose your washer based on its inner diameter, which should approximately match the diameter of the bolt to be inserted.
