Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a hardened washer and why would I need BR 43369-FS002?
A: The BR 43369-FS002 is a hardened washer designed for high-stress fastening applications in electric lift trucks. Hardened washers have increased load capacity and wear resistance compared to standard washers, making them suitable for bearing surfaces and pivot points.
Q: What is the material composition of the BR 43369-FS002 hardened washer?
A: The BR 43369-FS002 is manufactured from hardened steel or stainless steel, processed to specification hardness for electric lift truck assemblies. Material grade provides superior durability under load and friction compared to standard washers.
Q: Which applications require the BR 43369-FS002 hardened washer instead of a standard washer?
A: Hardened washers like the BR 43369-FS002 are typically used under bolt heads or pivot pins where high pressure, friction, or cyclic loading occurs. Contact us with your equipment assembly details to confirm whether your application requires hardened or standard specification.
Q: What is the load capacity or thickness of BR 43369-FS002?
A: The BR 43369-FS002 hardened washer specifications include bore diameter, outer diameter, thickness, and material hardness rating. Contact us with your equipment model and component location for exact load capacity and dimension details.
Q: Can I substitute BR 43369-FS002 hardened washers for standard BR 43369-FS001 washers?
A: Only if your equipment specification calls for hardened washers. Using hardened washers in non-critical applications does not cause problems, but using standard washers where hardened are required can result in fastener failure. Verify the correct part number for your assembly.
