General Electric Screws, Nuts, Washers

A small flat washer used as a replacement fastening spacer that helps secure bolts and prevent metal-to-metal wear. Restores proper spacing and fastener tension so assemblies stay aligned and tight. What it does:

• Acts as a spacer and load-distribution surface under a bolt or nut
• Prevents fasteners from loosening and reduces metal wear at contact points
• Restores correct alignment where a missing or worn washer caused vibration or rattling
• Simple, durable replacement for worn or corroded washers in mechanical assemblies

• Disconnect power before servicing electrical appliances to avoid shock
• Use appropriate hand tools; replace with the same style and thickness for correct fit
• Inspect mating fasteners and surfaces; replace any damaged hardware

A small mounting nut used to secure components and panels on compatible appliances. Replaces a loose or missing nut to restore stable, safe fastening and reduce rattling or wobble. What it does:

• Prevents fasteners from backing out during normal operation
• Helps stop rattling, vibration noise, and loose-fitting parts
• Restores proper alignment for attached components

• Disconnect power and water before beginning any repair
• Match threads and size before installation; hand-start the nut to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten securely with the correct socket or wrench, but do not overtighten
• If the original fastener was damaged, replace the mating bolt/stud as needed
