WASHER (Bobcat BC89967.4)

A worn washer can compromise the clamping force of a bolted joint, leading to loosening under vibration. The Bobcat catalog reference BC89967.4 identifies this aftermarket replacement part as a WASHER. Its primary function is to distribute load evenly beneath a fastener head or nut. A plain mechanical function of this type is to prevent galling between the fastener and the mating surface. A concrete generic failure consequence is that a missing or deformed washer can allow the fastener to embed into the softer material, reducing preload. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748. This part is listed as a Hardware Washer in the aftermarket category.
