Additional information

This flat washer, part number 736-3050, installs under a bolt or nut to help spread clamping force evenly and reduce wear on the mounting surface. Proper washer placement helps fasteners stay tight and components remain aligned during operation.

If a fastener loosens repeatedly, sinks into the mounting surface, or nearby parts shift out of position, the washer may be worn, bent, or missing. Corrosion or deformation can also limit how well the washer distributes load.

Before starting the repair, disconnect the power source appropriate for your equipment to prevent accidental operation. Place the washer in the correct position, then tighten the fastener securely without over-torquing.
