WASHER (Yale YT218-K-918)

YT218-K-918: A worn washer can compromise the clamping force in a bolted joint, leading to loosening over time. This aftermarket replacement part references the Yale catalog number YT218-K-918. The washer distributes the load of a threaded fastener across a wider surface area. Without proper load distribution, the fastener may embed into softer materials, reducing preload. During assembly, a washer also prevents galling between the fastener head and the mating surface. The part is a hardware washer, a common type used in mechanical fastening applications. Verify the serial number or application, then call (562) 693-7748.
