WASHER (Komatsu KO01601-00615)

A worn washer can compromise the clamping force of a bolted joint, leading to loosening over time. The catalog reference for this aftermarket replacement part is Komatsu part number KO01601-00615. This washer acts as a load-distributing spacer between a fastener head and the mating surface. Its plain mechanical function is to prevent galling and provide a smooth bearing surface. A common failure consequence is that a crushed or missing washer allows the fastener to embed into the softer material, reducing preload. Keeping a washer in sound condition helps maintain consistent torque retention in assembled components. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
