Washer
An extremely common item, this is a disk-shaped item with a hole in the center that is used to help enforce the grip or integrity of a screw or bolts hold. An example would be if you were to put a screw into soft plastic and tighten it down, the head of the screw may "dig" into the plastic, destroying it's integrity. The rigid face of a washer helps to dissipate the linear force of the head to a greater area, therefore, protecting the face of the object being bound.
