Lock washer for American Crane 9310

The lock washer, part number 806065, serves as a fastener component within the American Crane 9310. It is specifically sized with a 1-inch diameter to fit designated hardware assemblies on the crane. By applying spring force or additional friction to a bolted joint, this component helps maintain the preload required to keep nuts and bolts from backing off during operation.

This component is compatible with the American Crane 9310 model. It is used in various assembly points throughout the machine where vibration and dynamic loading are present. Proper installation of this washer ensures that the integrity of the bolted connection is maintained under the operational stresses typical of heavy lifting equipment.

Lock washers are standard mechanical elements used across heavy machinery to prevent the loosening of fasteners. They function by creating tension in the assembly, which resists rotation caused by external forces. Ensuring that these washers are present and correctly seated in all critical joints is a standard practice for maintaining the mechanical stability of crane structures and their associated systems.
