AN960 Regular Series Flat Washers

NAS1149 Standard Aircraft Hardware | Cadmium Plated & Stainless Steel | EU Stock Available

Professional Aircraft Washers for European Aviation

Airpart Supply Ireland distributes comprehensive stocks of AN960 Regular Series flat washers from our Dublin warehouse, providing European aviation operators with immediate access to certified aircraft hardware. AN960 Regular Series washers conform to NAS1149 specifications, offering thicker construction (.032" thickness) compared to Light Series washers for applications requiring enhanced load distribution and durability. These washers are essential components in airframe assemblies, engine installations, and structural hardware applications across general aviation, business aviation, and commercial aircraft maintenance throughout Europe. Available in both cadmium-plated steel (NAS1149F series) for corrosion resistance and stainless steel (NAS1149C series) for applications requiring superior environmental protection, our AN960 Regular Series washers are supplied with full FAA/PMA certification and EASA Part-21 documentation. We maintain comprehensive inventory from size #4 through 3/4" diameter to support Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, Cirrus, and Diamond aircraft maintenance across Ireland, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, and throughout the European Union. Our Dublin facility enables 2-5 day delivery to European customers with proper VAT handling, customs documentation, and technical support from experienced aviation hardware specialists who understand European maintenance requirements and regulatory compliance standards.

Technical Specifications & Applications

NAS1149 Standard Specifications

AN960 Regular Series washers meet stringent National Aerospace Standard NAS1149 requirements for dimensional accuracy, material properties, and surface finish. These washers feature .032" nominal thickness across all sizes (compared to .016" for Light Series), providing enhanced load distribution and structural integrity for applications requiring increased bearing surface area and improved clamping force distribution.

Material Options

Cadmium-Plated Steel (NAS1149F Series)

Manufactured from low-carbon steel with QQ-P-416 Type II cadmium plating, providing excellent corrosion resistance for interior applications and controlled environments. The cadmium coating offers superior lubricity characteristics and prevents galling during installation. These washers are ideal for general airframe hardware, electrical system installations, and control system assemblies in Cessna and Piper aircraft.

Stainless Steel (NAS1149C Series)

Manufactured from CRES (Corrosion Resistant Steel) Type 304 or 316, offering superior corrosion resistance for exterior applications, high-moisture environments, and installations requiring extended service life without maintenance. Stainless steel washers eliminate the risk of hydrogen embrittlement and provide excellent performance in engine compartment installations, exterior structural hardware, and exhaust system applications across European aircraft fleets.

Quality Standards

All AN960 Regular Series washers supplied by Airpart Supply are manufactured under AS9100 quality management systems with full traceability documentation. Each batch includes material certification, dimensional inspection reports, and plating thickness verification where applicable. Our inventory includes both FAA/PMA approved components and manufacturers meeting EASA Part-21 requirements for European aircraft maintenance.

Aircraft Applications

Airframe Structural Applications

AN960 Regular Series washers provide critical load distribution in airframe structural assemblies including wing attachment fittings, fuselage frame connections, and landing gear mounting hardware. The .032" thickness ensures proper bearing surface area for structural bolts used with AN3, AN4, AN5, AN6, AN7, and AN8 series bolts in Cessna, Piper, Beechcraft, Mooney, and Cirrus aircraft structures.

Engine Installation Hardware

Used extensively in engine mounting assemblies for Lycoming and Continental engines, AN960 Regular Series washers withstand vibration and thermal cycling in engine mount attachments, accessory drives, and exhaust system hardware. Stainless steel variants are particularly suited for exhaust manifold installations and high-temperature applications across European general aviation fleets.

Systems Mounting Hardware

Essential for securing electrical components, avionics equipment, hydraulic systems, and fuel system installations. Regular Series washers provide proper load distribution for equipment mounting brackets, instrument panel attachments, and control system hardware throughout the aircraft.

Control System Linkages

AN960 Regular Series washers are specified in flight control systems, trim systems, and cable tension assemblies where proper washer thickness ensures correct bearing surface and prevents hardware loosening due to vibration. Used with clevis bolts and castle nuts in primary and secondary flight control installations.
