Quick Specs
What Buyers Should Know Before Sourcing Copper Washers
Copper washers are commonly exported for assemblies that need ductility, conductivity, heat transfer, or a soft sealing surface. Before placing an order, buyers should confirm whether the part is used as a flat bearing washer, sealing washer, crush washer, shim, or spacer. The same ID and OD may perform differently when thickness, hardness, annealing condition, and burr control are changed.
For standard washer purchasing, compare requirements with available flat washers. For non-standard sizes, export kits, or parts matched to a fitting or bolt assembly, XZ Fastener can review drawings through its custom fasteners service.

Detailed Specifications Table
| Item | Typical Options | Buyer Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Product Type | Flat washer, sealing washer, crush washer, shim washer, spacer washer, special washer | Confirm whether the washer is used for sealing, spacing, conductivity, or load distribution. |
| Size Range | Metric and inch sizes can be supplied according to drawing or sample | Provide ID, OD, thickness, and tolerance. A drawing is recommended for non-standard parts. |
| Material | C110 electrolytic tough pitch copper, C102 oxygen-free copper, C122 deoxidized copper, equivalent grades | Material selection depends on conductivity, forming, corrosion exposure, and sealing behavior. |
| Hardness Condition | Soft annealed, half-hard, hard condition available upon request | Sealing washers usually require a softer condition than spacer or bearing washers. |
| Manufacturing Method | Stamping, punching, CNC turning, deburring, annealing, cleaning, optional plating | Thick, small-lot, or high-precision washers may be more suitable for machining. |
| Surface Condition | Natural copper, bright cleaned, tumbled, anti-tarnish, tin plated, nickel plated | Choose according to storage time, conductivity, solderability, and appearance requirement. |
| Export Packing | Inner bag, small box, bulk carton, label by size, pallet packing, moisture protection | Mixed sizes should be separated clearly to reduce receiving inspection and warehouse sorting time. |
| Inspection | Dimension check, burr check, visual inspection, hardness check, material confirmation | Inspection reports can be prepared according to order requirement. |
For size terminology and washer selection, buyers can review XZ Fastener’s flat washer sizing and material guide before preparing an export inquiry.
Material and Grade Explanation
Copper washers are usually ordered by copper grade or recognized equivalent. C110 is widely used where electrical and thermal conductivity are important. C102 oxygen-free copper can be considered for applications requiring higher purity or controlled oxidation behavior. C122 deoxidized copper is often selected where forming and corrosion resistance are important.
For sealing use, material grade is only one part of the decision. Annealing condition, washer thickness, mating surface, and tightening method all affect performance. When buyers have drawings, samples, assembly photos, or a mating fitting standard, XZ Fastener can review the made-to-drawing fastener material requirements before production confirmation.
Surface Finish Selection Guide
- Natural copper: Common for general sealing, conductive, and spacer applications.
- Bright cleaned: Suitable where a cleaner surface appearance is required before assembly.
- Annealed finish: Used when softer deformation is needed for sealing or crush washer use.
- Tumbled and deburred: Helps reduce sharp edges after stamping or punching.
- Tin plated: Can improve solderability and reduce surface oxidation in some electrical assemblies.
- Nickel plated: Available upon request for selected environments and appearance requirements.
- Anti-tarnish packing: Helpful for long storage and export shipment where surface color matters.
Manufacturing and Quality Control
Production can include sheet material preparation, die stamping, punching, CNC machining for special sizes, deburring, cleaning, annealing, optional plating, sorting, and export packing. For small washers and thin copper parts, burr direction, edge condition, and thickness tolerance should be confirmed before order release. For sealing washers, flatness and hardness condition are especially important.
XZ Fastener checks incoming material, production dimensions, visual appearance, packing labels, and carton details according to the purchase order. Buyers who need traceable checks can refer to XZ Fastener’s fastener quality control notes when preparing inspection requirements for copper washer export orders.
Applications
Electrical Assemblies
Used for grounding, busbar connections, conductive spacing, battery hardware, and electrical cabinets where copper conductivity is useful.
Hydraulic and Fluid Fittings
Soft copper sealing washers can deform under tightening load to help seal selected hydraulic, oil, fuel, and fluid connections.
Automotive Repair Kits
Copper crush washers are commonly included in service kits, brake line fittings, drain plugs, and aftermarket hardware packs.
Plumbing and HVAC
Used in pipe fittings, valves, thermal transfer points, and maintenance assemblies where copper compatibility is required.
Machinery and Instruments
Thin copper shims and spacer washers can adjust gaps, protect surfaces, and support controlled assembly spacing.
Export Hardware Kits
Mixed copper washer sizes can be packed by part number for distributors, maintenance kits, and assembly-line replenishment.
How to Get a Faster Quotation
For standard copper washers, send a size list with ID, OD, thickness, material grade, hardness condition, finish, quantity, packing method, and destination port if available. For custom washers, include a drawing, sample photo, tolerance notes, burr direction requirement, surface finish, and assembly purpose. If the washers will be used for sealing, please also advise the mating fitting material, working medium, and tightening condition when available.
For export orders, clear packing labels, separated sizes, carton weight limits, pallet requirement, and document preferences help reduce confirmation time. Buyers can also review XZ Fastener’s guide to fastener shipping documents before confirming invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin requirements.
FAQ
Can XZ Fastener export copper washers according to a custom drawing?
Yes. Copper washers can be supplied according to drawing, sample, or detailed size list. Please provide inner diameter, outer diameter, thickness, tolerance, material grade, hardness condition, surface requirement, quantity, and packing method.
What is the difference between a flat copper washer and a copper crush washer?
A flat copper washer is commonly used for load distribution, spacing, or conductivity. A copper crush washer is usually softer and designed to deform under tightening load to help create a seal in suitable fittings.
Can copper washers be annealed before export packing?
Yes. Annealed copper washers are available upon request. Buyers should specify whether soft annealed, half-hard, or hard condition is needed, because hardness affects sealing, forming, and handling behavior.
Which dimensions are required for a copper washer inquiry?
The most important dimensions are inner diameter, outer diameter, thickness, and tolerance. For non-standard parts, a drawing is recommended, especially when chamfer, flatness, burr control, or special edge condition is required.
Can copper washers be packed by size and part number?
Yes. Copper washers can be packed in bulk cartons, inner bags, small boxes, or palletized cartons. Labels by size, part number, quantity, and order reference can be arranged according to order requirement.
Can copper washers be exported together with bolts, nuts, and other fasteners?
Yes. Copper washers can be combined with bolts, screws, nuts, fittings, and other fastener items for consolidated purchasing. Please provide the full item list so matching size, finish, packing, and shipment details can be reviewed together.
