Dave Ithink what Walt is concerned about is how the OEM washers show signs of indentation or wear from rotating. Does anyone know what grade the OEM washers are?

TABs & washers Stainless washers at the hardware store: $0.30 each. =) There is no sheer force on a washer... So you don't have to spec a material based on that. There is only going to be a compressive force, and anything that doesn't compress will do fine. Before you go to this expense though, Walt, do you have any actual market for these? They make a batch of Toby-Tabs when the demand builds up, and it isn't that often. Are you sure you want to spend money to enter a low-demand niche market, which already has a sufficient product to fill the need? It's your dough, but you may want to think about it before you get stuck with a product that doesn't move very fast. -Dave ------------------------ Yahoo!
