Default Mr Gasket Copper Seal Header Gaskets

I just bought a set of the Mr gasket Copper Seal header gaskets and they came with what looks like Lock Washers. Are these what they are, and are they required to be used with my header bolts? I ask this because I've bought header gaskets before but none ever came with lock washers. I tried calling Mr. Gasket only to be put on hold for 45 minutes until I gave up and the e-mail I sent was never replied to.

I just put a set of those same gaskets on a week ago.
I did not use the washers,the gaskets work just fine.I just kept tightening them each day for a couple days and now they are good.
No leaks and the bolts are not backing out.i check every so often to see if they are.I say don't bother with the washers.It's up to you.
