Poisher Split Washer For Pol05

Features

• Genuine Tork Craft split (spring) washer for the POL05 polisher.
• Correct size for the designated fastener location on the POL05 (see parts diagram).
• Provides spring tension to resist loosening under vibration.
• Helps maintain correct preload on screws or nuts in the assembly.
• Durable material suited to workshop temperatures and loads.
• Supplied under the POL05-17 spare part reference.

Benefits

• Helps keep critical fasteners secure for safer machine operation.
• Reduces the risk of components shifting or rattling loose over time.
• Supports correct alignment of gears, bearings or housings associated with the fastener.
• Inexpensive way to extend the life of the POL05 polisher assembly.
• Ensures repairs and rebuilds are done to factory specification.

Extra Information

Split washers are often overlooked during repairs, but once they have been fully compressed or damaged they no longer provide proper locking force. If you find a flattened, cracked or heavily corroded washer when stripping a POL05, it should be replaced with the correct POL05-17 part rather than re-used.

Always refer to the POL05 parts diagram to confirm the exact location of this washer in the assembly. Using the right washer in the right place helps the entire polisher feel tighter and more solid in use, especially in busy panel shops and detailing bays where tools see daily vibration and load.

Pro Tip

Pro Tip: Whenever you have the POL05 open for gearbox or bearing work, replace any tired-looking split washers at the same time. Combine fresh POL05-17 washers with the correct torque on screws or nuts – a light dab of suitable thread-lock on clean, dry threads can add extra security where specified, but avoid over-tightening which can crush the washer and reduce its locking effect.

Specifications

Safety

• Always unplug the polisher from the mains before stripping or rebuilding assemblies.
• Ensure the POL05-17 washer is fitted in the correct position and orientation.
• Do not re-use cracked, badly corroded or flattened split washers.
• Tighten associated fasteners to sensible torque – over-tightening can damage threads and washers.
• After reassembly, test the polisher under no load and re-check fasteners after the first few uses.
