Description
A stamped cup washer is a thin, circular metal component with a central hole sized to fit a specific screw or bolt. The defining feature of this washer is its “cup” or “dome” shape—created by pressing or stamping the metal into a shallow bowl form. The central hole is usually countersunk to match the profile of a flat or countersunk screw head, ensuring that the screw sits flush or slightly recessed into the washer.
Unlike turned cup washers, which are precision-machined, stamped cup washers are made by high-speed stamping presses, making them more economical and suitable for high-volume production.
