WS Series Bearing Lockwashers – Inch, Stainless Steel
The WS series is the stainless steel inch lockwasher, matched to the stainless NS locknut. Specify it wherever a carbon steel washer would rust — corrosion at the tang is a common cause of lockwasher failure, because a pitted tang cracks when it is bent.
