Thanks - 69yo woman who was taught cooking and sewing instead of nuts and bolts and woodwork at school. Glad we have progressed and thanks to you for explaining the washers - basic but necessary.

[@RickBolt]

That is awesome!

[@mafp22w]

I’m a 64 year old kid that found this informative. Always learning…too bad I didn’t know this earlier.

[@zacki5663]

I’m a 35yo man, and you just taught me for the first time. Been using them my whole life not knowing

[@YudaHnK]

“Don’t know anybody like that!”
I chuckled 😊

[@r1Scooby]

Thanks a ton dude you rock i just got an r1 and im becoming a dad so i need to learn some basics we weren't taught by our dads or at school :))

[@darflame69yt12]

I feel you on that

[@MinorScalesMajorFuckups]

Wow you are really enthusiastic about washers. Very helpful! Thanks. I am reassembling an espresso machine

[@reedmak77]

Thank you for the education on these different types of washers!!

[@yazeed1407]

“Get not respect” I learned this the hard way,, after I lost them during assemble, then thought: what difference would it make? Things become loose and falling 😅

[@ddemonjjv]

Excellent.👍

[@satibel]

another somewhat common but less noticed washer are vibration dampening washers, aka rubber washers, you'll commonly find them around motors or for transport, like on a brand new washing machine, it will have rubber washers with flat washers on top.

[@RonHelton]

I try to keep a good mix of washers on hand, but usually still have to go back to the hardware store
because I either didn't have enough or had a surprise repair job.

[@dbasarich]

Thanks...I am bolting wood on a greenhouse in the wind so this is helpful.

[@stanstanstanstan]

Very clear. Thanks!

[@sparked3113]

Flat Washers - these can increase the Clamping Force. A Flat Washer should be used under a Nut so that the nut does not bind on the assembly it is holding together, that is, hold the Bolt Head stationary and turn/tighten the nut, the nut will rub against the washer as it turns and not mark the assembly.

[@KH-3414]

Thank you. Never knew.

[@jessebob325]

What indications should you look for in a crush washer that it may need replacing?

[@oldgadfly8398]

The most obvious answer is: is there any leak? e.g. the crush washer around the oil pan drain plug / bolt.

[@hologos_]

Thanks for the knowledge sharing. Be well ✌️

[@CalitranoN]

What washer is used on an input jack of back of speaker cabinet?

[@DavidMFChapman]

If you need to learn about washers, ask a bolt!

[@RickBolt]

no doubt!

[@dc5189]

Great vid!
What are you guys recommend for keeping a rear view mirror stable adj wise? Motorcycle

[@RickBolt]

Thank you. It may depend on the material of the mirror. Might try a lock washer.

[@GeoAdamPerez]

This is awesome.

[@ninanina8680]

I have an old electric chainsaw
The tension bar was missing a screw to keep it taught in the gear. Do I need an additional washer ( which may have been lost and if so where would I place it
Under bar or atop bar for more tension

[@ajonsson2013]

Great video

[@marquis2001]

Kids today know how to edit out the false start at the beginning of the video. Otherwise good, informative video.

[@raes6829]

Do you need a nut to secure further? I have a Thule bike rack with bolt and lock washer but no nut . Is this ok? I tried Thule site but no help. The bike rack is second hand.

[@RickBolt]

yep, still need a hex nut

[@clm0208]

I think if you seriously wanted to spread washer love, it's better to tell us more when to use it other than machinery. Or demonstrate how big of a difference it is with and without washer.
I basically found some washer when decluttering. Thinking of throwing it out cuz it doesn't seems like I'll be using it.

[@TheRealExplicit]

I noticed you washer hands and under your fingernails really well before making a video where they would be the stars of the show… well done my friend. Got my like and sub 😂 (you see what I did there 👆👆👆)

[@ripcord080]

Washer? I hardly know her! 😂

[@n_a3522]

Didn’t show the external lock washer in use.

[@Benoit-Pierre]

Please remove auto translation; youtube translated washers as ... washing machines ...

[@lickmytoaster9550]

I’m always so interested by what different regions call split lock washers because I’ve actually heard so many different names. I’ve always just called them lock washers
