A tab washer is a flat washer with one or more tabs that lock into place to prevent rotation. These tabs secure nuts or bolts, maintaining tightness even in high-vibration environments. This makes tab washers a preferred choice in automotive, machinery, and construction applications.

Made from durable materials like stainless steel or carbon steel, tab washers are designed for long-lasting performance. By using anti-vibration tab washers, you ensure stability and reliability in assemblies where constant movement could otherwise loosen fasteners.
