WASHER PLATE SHELF

Shelving used in foodservice storage and merchandising may be solid or wire. Solid stainless steel and wire shelving is used in a broad range of commercial applications. It is often used in restaurant, food service and retail store applications, as well as refrigerators and freezers, due to its ability to stay clean and resist rust and mold. A further finish on the steel may either be painted or sprayed on, or be it electroplated with zinc.

A washer is a thin plate (typically disk-shaped, but sometimes square) with a hole (typically in the middle) that is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a bolt or nut. Other uses are as a spacer, spring (Belleville washer, wave washer), wear pad, preload indicating device, locking device, and to reduce vibration (rubber washer). Spring washers, which have axial flexibility are used to prevent fastening or loosening due to vibrations. Locking (lock) washers prevent fastening or loosening by preventing unscrewing rotation of the fastening device.
