CAT 9M-1974 M8 Hardened Steel Flat Washer 8.8mm

CAT 9M-1974 M8 Hardened Steel Flat Washer 8.8mm é identificado pelo número de peça da Caterpillar 9M-1974. Provides a stable bearing surface under a fastener head or nut, distributing clamp load over a controlled area. Washers are often treated as generic hardware, but the specified hardness, thickness, surface coating and hole size all matter in a critical Caterpillar joint. This listing is intended for engineers, fleet maintenance teams and international B2B parts buyers who need a clear product specification and a defensible method of checking the application before ordering.

Product Overview and Function

Provides a stable bearing surface under a fastener head or nut, distributing clamp load over a controlled area. Washers are often treated as generic hardware, but the specified hardness, thickness, surface coating and hole size all matter in a critical Caterpillar joint.

Even inexpensive service parts can determine whether a larger repair succeeds. Dimensions, mating geometry, material and installation sequence should be checked against the exact manufacturer drawing rather than assuming that another component with a similar appearance is interchangeable.

Key Product Features

  • Hardened low-alloy steel construction
  • Zinc-phosphate plus oil finish
  • Exact CAT dimensions 8.8 × 16 × 2 mm
  • Flat washer designed for 5/16-inch-size fastener group

Fitment guidance: Model numbers are representative applications from the Caterpillar public product listing, not a guarantee for every production year or serial number. Engine and machine configurations vary, so final compatibility must be checked in CAT SIS or with the relevant parts diagram before shipment.

Common Problems and Inspection Points

  • Visible elongation, cupping, corrosion or fretting around a bolted connection should trigger inspection of the entire joint.
  • A washer that is thinner or softer than specified may change the clamp-load behavior even if it appears to fit.

Do not replace a component based on one symptom alone. Inspection should include the adjacent parts, installation condition and available equipment diagnostics so that a new part is not installed into an unresolved system fault.

Installation and Maintenance Notes

  • Use the specified fastener, washer and tightening method for the exact assembly.
  • Inspect the mating face and avoid stacking unspecified washers to compensate for alignment or clearance.

The original failure should be understood before new parts are installed. Clean sealing surfaces, correct fasteners, controlled tightening and inspection of adjacent parts are often as important as the replacement component itself. Use the applicable Caterpillar service manual for torque figures, clearance settings, calibration instructions and safe test procedures; those values can differ between engine arrangements.
