Cragar Offset Washers Stainless 10 Pack

The McGard Cragar Offset Washers Stainless 10 Pack (MCG78714) is a precision-engineered set of wheel washers designed to distribute load evenly across lug bolt heads and prevent fastener pull-through during installation and torquing. These stainless steel washers feature a 0.697-inch inner diameter and 1.248-inch outer diameter with 0.164-inch thickness, making them compatible with standard metric and SAE wheel lug bolts on a wide range of vehicles. Manufactured from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, this 10-pack supplies enough washers for a complete wheel set with spares.

The offset design of these wheel washers reduces stress concentration at the bolt hole by increasing the bearing surface area between the fastener head and the wheel flange. The 0.164-inch thickness provides adequate rigidity to prevent deformation under normal wheel installation torque specifications, while the stainless steel composition eliminates oxidation and rust that commonly affects standard steel washers—particularly important in coastal, wet, or salt-treated road environments. The natural finish maintains a clean appearance on wheel assemblies while offering superior corrosion resistance compared to plated alternatives.

McGard wheel washers are specified by technicians and mechanics restoring vehicles, installing aftermarket wheels, or maintaining OEM wheel assemblies where fastener integrity is critical. These offset washers prevent the common failure mode of bolt head pull-through that occurs on older wheels with enlarged bolt holes or when reusing wheels across multiple vehicles. The universal fit accommodates most 5-lug, 6-lug, and 8-lug bolt patterns, making this 10-pack a practical addition to any shop tool inventory or serious enthusiast's fastener collection.

Stainless steel wheel washers have become the standard among professional shops because they survive multiple wheel removal and reinstallation cycles without corrosion or dimensional degradation. When paired with quality lug bolts and proper torque specifications, these offset washers ensure repeatable clamping force and eliminate the risk of fastener rotation or loosening that can develop over thousands of miles of driving.
