Washer for Wirtgen 2200SM

The component 36126 is a mechanical washer utilized in Wirtgen heavy machinery. It functions by distributing the clamping force of a bolt or nut over a larger surface area, which protects the mating surfaces and helps maintain the integrity of the bolted joint. By providing a stable bearing surface, it assists in preventing fasteners from loosening under operational conditions.

This part is specifically compatible with the Wirtgen 2200SM surface miner. It is used in various fastening points throughout the machine, including structural assemblies and system components where secure mounting is required to withstand dynamic loads. Proper installation of this washer ensures that the intended preload on the fastener is achieved and maintained during operation.

Washers are standard elements in mechanical engineering used to support the clamping force of threaded fasteners. They prevent damage to the component surface during tightening and can help distribute pressure evenly across the connection area. Selecting the correct washer for a specific application is necessary to ensure the stability of the assembly.
