Washer for Demag AC80-1

The washer with part number 340 461 99 serves as a component in the assembly of the Demag AC80-1 mobile crane. It is utilized to distribute the clamping force of a threaded fastener, such as a bolt or nut, over a broader surface area. By spreading this load, the component helps prevent damage to the underlying material and supports the stability of various assemblies, including structural frames and mechanical systems.

This part is compatible with the Demag AC80-1 crane. It ensures that fasteners remain secure under the operational conditions typical of heavy machinery. Proper installation of this component is necessary to maintain the intended tension in bolted joints and to prevent the loosening of connections caused by dynamic loads or operational movement.

In heavy machinery, washers act as load-bearing surfaces that protect the mounting area from surface deformation. They may also serve as spacers or as part of a sealing arrangement depending on the specific assembly requirements. By providing a consistent bearing surface, they assist in maintaining the structural alignment of the machine components during operation.
