Mine were made with 3/8” Barstock with hot rolled steel. I don’t know what they 
were thinking.

I made new ones with SS 3/8” Barstock around the same size.

You can buy  small pieces of barstock form McMaster and sawr  and drill them if 
you choose to go that route. Standard washers are kind of wimpy for the amount 
of torque that these support, unless they are properly bedded.

Hi All, I know  this has been discussed many times here but this is a quick and 
simple one.

 

I'm going to be torquing my keel bolts this spring and I've noticed that the 
washers/spacers under some of the nuts are coroding and need to be replaced. 
I'd like to change them out for Stainless Steel.

 

What do you guys have for keel bolt washers/spacers and how did you get them 
made?

 

Thanks!
