Shoulder Washers

Shoulder washers are cylindrical components with a flange at one end, designed for precise spacing and alignment in mechanical assemblies. Typically made of materials like metal or plastic, these washers feature a smooth, flat surface with a raised shoulder that serves as a stop or support point. The flange prevents the washer from passing through a hole, ensuring a secure fit. Shoulder washers are commonly used to maintain separation between components, reduce friction, and provide structural support in various applications, such as electronics, automotive systems, and machinery, where precision and stability are essential for optimal performance.
