48K111 - Walter Surfox Replacement Stainless Washer 5x10mm

Precision Replacement Hardware for Surfox Systems

The Walter 48K111 Stainless Washer 5x10 Mm is a specialized replacement component designed to maintain the optimal functionality of your Walter Surface Technologies Surfox electrochemical weld cleaning system. In the demanding environment of electrochemical cleaning, where equipment is constantly exposed to acidic electrolytes, high heat, and electrical current, every component plays a critical role. This washer is not merely a generic fastener; it is manufactured to specific tolerances to ensure it fits perfectly within the Surfox wand assembly, often used to secure cleaning pads, boots, or marking heads.

Constructed from high-grade stainless steel, this washer is engineered to withstand the harsh chemical environment inherent to the weld cleaning process. Standard zinc-plated or mild steel washers would quickly corrode when in contact with Surfox electrolytes (such as Surfox-T or Surfox-G), potentially contaminating the stainless steel workpiece or causing failure in the wand's assembly. By using this genuine Walter spare part, operators ensure that the chemical resistance of the machine's wet-end components remains compromised, preventing premature wear and ensuring consistent electrical contact where necessary.

Maintenance is a key aspect of owning industrial equipment. Over time, small hardware components can be lost during consumable changes or degrade after thousands of cleaning cycles. The 48K111 washer provides a quick and exact solution for repair, eliminating the downtime associated with sourcing ill-fitting generic alternatives. Whether you are performing routine maintenance on a Surfox Mini, Surfox 205, or Surfox 305, having the correct OEM parts ensures your machine continues to passivate and clean stainless steel welds effectively and safely.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Chemical Resistance: Specifically alloyed to resist attack from phosphoric and other acids used in electrolytes.
• Exact Fitment: 5mm ID and 10mm OD dimensions are tailored for Surfox applicator mandrels.
• System Integrity: Helps maintain the correct pressure and spacing for cleaning pads.
