48K626 - Walter 48K626 SS Replacement Washer 3x6mm

Genuine Walter 48K626 Stainless Steel Washer

The Walter 48K626 is a specialized stainless steel washer designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial environments. Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in surface treatment and industrial power tools, this component serves as a crucial replacement part for maintaining the integrity of your equipment. Measuring 3mm in inner diameter and 6mm in outer diameter, this washer is engineered with precision tolerances to ensure a perfect fit within specific Walter assemblies.

In the world of industrial maintenance, the importance of using genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts cannot be overstated. While a generic washer might seem like a suitable substitute, the Walter 48K626 is crafted from high-grade stainless steel chosen specifically for its compatibility with Walter tools. Stainless steel provides exceptional resistance to rust and oxidation, which is particularly important in environments where moisture, chemicals, or high humidity are present. This ensures that the fastener assembly remains secure over time and does not seize due to corrosion, facilitating easier future maintenance.

Washers play a vital role in mechanical assemblies by distributing the load of a threaded fastener, such as a screw or nut. This prevents damage to the surface being fixed and reduces the risk of the fastener loosening under vibration. The 3mm x 6mm dimensions of this washer are typical for precision internal components or small external housings found on Walter's range of grinders, finishing tools, or fluid systems. Using the correct size is critical; a washer that is too large may interfere with moving parts, while one that is too small may not provide adequate support.

When servicing your Walter equipment, it is recommended to inspect all small hardware for signs of wear, deformation, or fatigue. Replacing compromised washers with the 48K626 ensures that your tool continues to operate at peak performance and safety standards. Whether you are performing a routine overhaul or an emergency repair, having the correct OEM hardware on hand minimizes downtime and extends the service life of your valuable machinery.
