LOCKWASHER (Komatsu KO01602-21440)

KO01602-21440: A worn lockwasher can compromise fastener retention in mechanical assemblies. This aftermarket replacement part references the Komatsu catalog number KO01602-21440. A lockwasher is a type of hardware washer that creates tension between a fastener and its mating surface. Its plain mechanical function is to prevent rotational loosening caused by vibration. A concrete generic failure consequence is that a missing or collapsed lockwasher can allow the fastener to back out, leading to component separation. Keeping a lockwasher in sound condition helps maintain consistent clamping force over time. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
