MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Unusual size 1/2' washers

Someone around here will know where to find these!

I am looking for some unusual sized washers. I have a few but would like some more. Unfortunately, it was a few years ago when I bought the ones I have and I can't figure out where I found them.

They are 1/2" ID, 1-1/8" OD, 0.06" thickness.

The ID is the most important bit. It is exactly 1/2" (not 1/2" nominal, which are then a bit bigger for wiggle room on a 1/2" bolt).

The closest I can find is MS15795 spec, 7/16" x 1-1/4" nominal, which is a 1/2" exact ID, but different OD and thickness. (See picture).

The ones I have are A2 stainless, but material is the least important consideration.

Thanks everyone.

Malc.

Nice one, thanks David. They do exist! But I might use something else if they are nearly £1 per washer!

Althogh that link might help me track them down somewhere else.

Thanks everyone for their googling efforts.

I found them here originally https://ampg.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/2014-AMPG-Washer-CatPgs.pdf page D3 near the start of the document and searched for the part number. It says 'Industry Semi Standard Flat Washers' so that doesn't seem to help with searching, often I see washers referred to as table X, where X is a number, must try finding those tables some time.

I believe that the price quoted is per units of 100 but they will sell in units of 25.
