This M8 Form C flat washer is manufactured to BS4320-C in A4 stainless steel (316 marine grade). BS4320 Form C specifies a large outer diameter washer, providing a significantly wider bearing surface than a standard DIN 125-A Form A washer for the same bolt size. A4 (316) grade gives superior resistance to chloride and saltwater attack compared with A2 (304), making this the correct choice for coastal, marine, pool, and chemical environments where load distribution and corrosion resistance are both critical.

Typical applications

  • Marine and coastal installations - boat fittings, pier fixings, jetty hardware
  • Swimming pool surrounds, water treatment plant, and pump assemblies
  • Timber decking and fencing in wet or coastal conditions
  • Chemical plant, food processing, and washdown environments

Available in packs of 25 to 100, with free next-day UK delivery on orders over £50 and 30-day no-quibble returns.

How do I choose between A2 and A4 stainless steel?

A2 (304) stainless steel suits most indoor, outdoor and workshop jobs. Choose A4 (316) marine grade for coastal, marine, poolside or other chloride-rich environments.

How do I make sure I order the right size?

Check the size in the product title and the standard, material and dimensions in the Product Specification tab. In M8 x 30, M8 is the thread diameter and 30 is the length in millimetres. See our size guide if you need more help.
