Description
Overview:
Forgefix Flat Mudguard Washers ZP M8 x 50mm are wide-diameter steel washers with a bright zinc-plated finish, supplied in a bag of 10. Designed to spread load over a larger area, they protect thin sheet, plastic, timber, and composite panels from bolt or nut pull-through, while helping maintain a secure clamp on uneven surfaces. The large 50 mm outside diameter (approx. 1.97 inches) suits applications where extra bearing area is needed, and the M8 clearance hole pairs with standard M8 bolts and nuts. Their zinc plating offers reliable corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor use around construction, agricultural, and garden machinery, including mowers, compact tractors, trailers, guards, and brackets. Part code: 10MUDWASH850.
Key Features:
- Large 50 mm OD (approx. 1.97 inches) for effective load spreading on thin or soft materials
- Bright Zinc Plated (ZP) steel for durable corrosion resistance in typical UK weather conditions
- M8 clearance hole for use with standard M8 fasteners across tools and machinery fittings
- Helps prevent bolt head or nut embedment and reduces risk of pull-through
- Provides a flatter, more stable bearing surface on irregular or oversized holes
- Suitable for outdoor assemblies on equipment guards, panels, and fixings
- Smooth faces reduce friction during tightening and aid even torque application
- Simple to fit with basic hand tools; reusable if undamaged
- Supplied as a convenient bag of 10 for site and workshop use
- Compatible with steel, aluminium, plastic, timber, and composite substrates
Typical Applications:
Securing mudguards, body panels, guards, brackets, straps, and repair plates on construction kit, garden machinery, trailers, racks, benches, sheds, and fencing. Ideal where thin sheet or oversized holes need extra support, such as mower decks, engine cowls, and enclosure panels.
