Disc for Komatsu WA420-3

The disc, identified by part number 195-15-32710, functions as a critical interface within the drivetrain or braking assemblies of heavy machinery. In the context of the Komatsu WA420-3 wheel loader, this component is typically integrated into the powershift transmission as part of a multi-disc clutch pack or within the wet disc brake system. It operates by engaging with adjacent plates to either transmit rotational torque or provide the necessary friction to decelerate and hold the machine. Proper alignment and surface integrity are required for the component to interface correctly with the surrounding clutch or brake assembly.

This part is designed for use in the Komatsu WA420-3 wheel loader. It is manufactured to meet the dimensional and functional requirements of the transmission and braking systems for this specific model. Regular inspection of these discs is necessary to monitor for signs of wear or thermal degradation that can affect the performance of the transmission or the responsiveness of the braking system.

In heavy equipment, friction discs are fundamental to managing power flow and kinetic energy. Within a transmission, they allow for the engagement and disengagement of gear sets under load. In braking systems, they convert kinetic energy into thermal energy to stop the machine.
