The small M5 hardware in my roof frame sat alongside the larger rack fasteners. This black split-washer pack is part of the metric hardware I bought for those kinds of compact connections.

Comparing Finishes Within One Washer Form
I used M5 hardware at the smaller light-bar extrusion.
The rack connection used separate quarter-twenty hardware.
I bought black-coated M5 split washers among the metric fastening supplies.
The profiles and joint hardware during my roof-mount assembly.The drilled connectors and fasteners joining my added extrusion to the roof rack.
My Takeaway from This Job
The three options here retain the M5 split-ring form. The black coating distinguishes my purchase from the plain stainless alternatives, so the comparison is about finish and supplier rather than a different washer geometry.
These options share M5 split-ring geometry and differ in finish or supplier.

The split-ring profile differs from a continuous flat washer. Record that shape with the material and M5 size in the hardware organizer so the selected piece can be identified without relying only on its color. For a van bracket or panel connection, show the washer as part of the screw-and-nut stack. The actual stack height and surrounding contact surfaces remain useful details when the connection needs to be opened or compared with another joint.
Its ring is split rather than a continuous flat disk.

Two Alternatives to Compare
Both alternatives retain the M5 split-ring form in a plain stainless finish. They change the supplier and finish rather than the basic washer geometry.
These uxcell M5 washers use a split-ring form rather than a continuous flat disk. The stainless pieces add a distinct washer profile beneath a fastener head or nut.
