Their primary purpose in the aircraft industry is to provide a smooth bearing surface under a hex nut allowing for index alignment of cotter pin holes or as shims to obtain the proper grip length needed on the fastener. AN Washers are also preferred by performance minded builders. These Mil Spec washers are ideal for applications where space availability is limited, and to save weight on a final assembly.
