Description of C Shape Washer

A C Shape Washer is a specialized washer with a cut-out design resembling the letter "C." This design allows it to be easily slid into place around a bolt, screw, or shaft without needing to remove the fastener entirely. C shape washers are commonly used in applications requiring quick adjustments, repairs, or assemblies where disassembling components is impractical.
