# M4 Flat Washers Dimensions

Washers · ISO 7089 / ISO 7093

Controlling dimensions to ISO 7089 / ISO 7093, with tolerances and fit.

M4 Flat Washers dimensions to ISO 7089 / ISO 7093: inside diameter 4.3 mm, outside diameter 9 mm, thickness 0.8 mm.

- **Inside diameter:** 4.3 mm
- **Outside diameter:** 9 mm
- **Thickness:** 0.8 mm

Figures are nominal values from the governing standard. Confirm against the tolerance class for your application before machining or ordering.

## Mating Parts for M4

A M4 flat washer pairs with a M4 bolt/screw and matching M4 nut.

## Need flat washers in a size this table does not list?

This page covers M4 flat washers. Bore and outside diameter are set by the joint rather than by the bolt, which is why an off-table size is so often the right answer. Made by stamping or punching.

Minimum order from 2,000 pieces; samples within 7 days of drawing approval.

## Applications & Industries for M4 Flat Washers

Flat Washers are bought for a small number of well-defined jobs. These are the ones we ship them for. Stocked from M1.6 to M24 (nominal bolt size).

### Industries that specify Flat Washers

- **Rotating & vibrating plant:** Spring, tooth and wedge types that maintain or lock bolt tension.
- **Steel fabrication:** Spreading load under a head or nut and protecting the surface finish.
- **Machine building & OEM:** Setting bearing area on soft alloy, plastic and oversized holes.
- **Timber & construction:** Large-diameter washers that stop pull-through in softer material.

### Typical applications

- spreading clamp load over a soft or oversized bearing face
- protecting a painted or plated surface under a turned nut
- maintaining bolt tension in a joint that settles

### Service conditions to specify against

- **Marine and coastal:** Available in A4 (316) stainless for chloride exposure — coastal structures, pool halls, water treatment and deck hardware, where A2 will eventually pit.
- **Hardness matters:** Under a high-strength bolt a soft washer embeds into the joint and preload is lost — specify a hardened washer for structural bolting.

Inside the plant

## Manufactured in our own plant

This part is cold-formed, threaded, heat-treated and finished in-house. The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided.

1. ![Wire rod feeding into a cold heading machine](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/09-wire-rod-feed-cold-heading-machine.webp) 01 **Cold heading** Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail. Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift.
2. ![Thread rolling machine producing bolt threads](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/03-thread-rolling-machine-bolt-production.webp) 02 **Thread rolling** Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch. Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g.
3. ![Baskets of bolts staged for heat treatment](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/05-heat-treatment-baskets-black-bolts.webp) 03 **Heat treatment** Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it. Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1.
4. ![Zinc plated bolts in a treatment basket](https://engineeringhardware.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/23-zinc-plated-bolts-treatment-basket.webp) 04 **Surface treatment** Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list. Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What clearance and tapping drill suit M4?

Use a 4.5 mm clearance hole (ISO 273 medium) for through-fixing, or a 3.3 mm tapping drill for a coarse M4 thread.

### Is M4 Flat Washers suitable for electronics and small mechanisms?

M4 Flat Washers is in the micro range and is widely used in electronics, instrument enclosures and small precision mechanisms. Watch the over-torque margin — micro joints strip easily.

### What's the typical proof load behavior of M4 class 8.8?

Micro-thread joints are sensitive to plastic deformation in the first turn under load — use a torque-limiting driver and check the bearing surface deformation on softer mating materials.

### Which washer dimensions matter most for M4?

For a flat washer, the outside diameter (the bearing surface) and the thickness control how the load is spread under the head and how much elastic preload is preserved. The inside diameter must clear the bolt body but not be so large that the head bears mostly on the washer's outer rim.
