Washer
Bendix

This washer provides a thinner, precision-driven spacers solution with a 0.03 inch thickness, designed to fine-tune stack height and preload in critical joints. Its inner diameter of 1.25 inches and outer diameter of 2.25 inches deliver a balanced load distribution while preserving surface contact area, minimizing the risk of indentation or deformation under dynamic loads. In fleet applications, such washers are instrumental in aligning assemblies with tight tolerances, particularly in brake assemblies, steering linkages, and auxiliary system housings where even contact and consistent clamping force are essential for reliability. The VMRS 053-007-008 coding places it within standard fastener and shim components, facilitating maintenance planning and cross-referencing with other shim options. The category context reinforces its role as a basic, versatile hardware element. When deploying, verify hole and fastener compatibility, ensure proper seating surface finish, and assess thermal expansion considerations to prevent loosening or misalignment during service intervals in harsh operating conditions.
