ASME B18.22.1 5/8 Flat washer
ASME B18.22.1 5/8 is a flat washer, sized for 5/8 bolts. The inch-series plain washer in the preferred series. Inside diameters are sized to the nominal bolt diameter plus clearance, matching the inch bolt range rather than metric.

All 5/8 specificationsChoosing and fitting this size
ASME B18.22.1 5/8 is a washer with a 0.656 in inside diameter. It sits under a bolt head or nut to spread the clamping load; the inside diameter matches the bolt it is specified for, so the washer and fastener should always be ordered as a pair.
Hardness is the governing property rather than tensile strength: a washer specified for a Grade 8 bolt must be hard enough not to deform under preload, otherwise the joint loses clamping force quietly. Match the washer grade to the bolt grade rather than picking on inside diameter alone.
