Упорная шайба, толщина 6,97 мм Caterpillar 4378977

The Thrust Washer is a component utilized in the rear axles of heavy machinery. It distributes axial loads, reduces friction, and provides support in the final drive. Facilitating smooth rotation of axle shafts ensures proper gear engagement and prevents direct metal-to-metal contact between components.Attributes:• Provides proper load distribution.• Prevents wear and misalignment.• Ensures smooth rotation and alignment.Applications:The Thrust Washer operates by providing support and reducing friction in the final drive. As axial loads are generated during vehicle operation, the thrust washer evenly distributes these forces, preventing excessive wear on components. By creating a bearing surface, it minimizes friction between moving parts.
