Product Description

Product Description

The cast iron 45° Wedge Washers are an engineered cost-saving solution for steel-to-wood connections. Available in three different sizes and compatible with 5/16” [8 mm], 3/8” [10mm], 1/2″ [12 mm] countersunk headed fasteners, they are easily installed into machined elliptical holes in steel plates.

Using a Pre-Drilling Jig during the installation will not only accelerate the process even further, reducing the overall connections’ cost, but will also ensure a successful and uniform installation.

 

Features

  • Compatible with 3 fastener diameters, 5/16” [8 mm], 3/8” [10 mm], 1/2″ [12 mm]
  • Compatible with our Countersunk Headed Fasteners, ASSY Ecofast & ASSY VG CSK
  • Combination with a Pre-Drilling Jig recommended for a faster installation process.
  • Reduced complex milling process to countersunk fasteners in steel plates.

The use of 45° wedge washers also eliminates the complex milling process that is otherwise required to completely countersink a screw head in a steel plate. The 45° washers thus allow for the use of a thinner punched out steel plate, leading to more cost-effective steel-to-wood connection solutions.
