Overview
The AN960-716 flat washer is a standard aircraft hardware component designed to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a nut or bolt head, over a larger surface area. Belonging to the general airframe hardware system, this washer prevents damage to the component surface, provides a bearing surface for the fastener, and can be used for spacing or shimming applications. Its primary role is to ensure proper fastener seating and reduce the likelihood of material distortion or galling when torque is applied to a 7/16-inch diameter bolt or screw.
