681 forum posts 260 photos | Just received some mail order 10BA washers which look too big to me.
They have an OD of 4.3mm with a 1.9mm hole. I have trawled the internet and found numerous sites which give thead dimensions, but cannot find spec. for washers. Does anyone know the correct dimensions. Alternatively, where can I get this information without paying BSI a small fortune.
Thanks in advance

![]() 484 forum posts 97 photos | Anthony, B.A. washers are supplied as Large or Small. The outside dia. of 10 BA large is 0.171/0.176" Hole dia. is .073/0.078" Thickness is 27swg (0.0164") The reference book I'm looking at now only goes down to 8BA for the small washers. The above abstract was from BS 57 and it's obvious what you have are large 10 BA washers. Len P. |

681 forum posts 260 photos | The link I was given for the BA data no longer seems to work. Have I been blocked from accessing this data by some mysterious webmaster? |

Link still works for me.
