Washer with 1 cm internal diameter

Greetings from sunny Berkshire

I need a washer with a 1cm internal diameter, and an overall diameter of approx. 2cm (it's to fix a tent - the bit where the pole fits into the tensioning straps)
The internal diameter is more critical - external can probably be 1.9-2.5cm

Is there a standard size (metric or Imperial) that would do?

Thanks

A :twisted: C

Are these any good?

10mm internal diameter, with 20mm external diameter, and 2mm thick A2 stainless steel (£2.19 for 25 delivered) -

I bought a mixed bag of washers from......I think it was Wilkinsons. I'm looking at those washers now and there are a number of them that are 20.5mm dia with a 10.5mm hole x 1.2mm thick.

If that size is ok for you, you could try your local Wilkinsons or I'm happy to put a couple in the post to you if you message me.

Cheers both! I'm off to Wilko soonish so will have a look
I did see the M10 but for some reason the site i was on quoted the internal diameter as < 1cm - which makes no sense now i think about it!!

It looks like your problem is easily solved.

If I don't have a washer with the right internal measurement I'd just drill the hole out to the required size.

Will the Wilko ones be stainless ?
