Description
Overview:
The Lock Waster for Thwaites 1 Tonne dumpers is a metal locking component used to secure fasteners and prevent loosening under vibration. Supplied to the Thwaites specification and referenced by OEM No. T101457, it fits precisely into assemblies on Thwaites machines, helping to maintain safe, reliable operation in tough site conditions. Built from durable metal, it is suitable for routine maintenance or repairs where a locking washer is specified. It is commonly used on the Thwaites 201 and MACH 201 models, and is designed for straightforward fitting with standard hand tools. By keeping key fixings tight, this lock waster supports the integrity of the dumper's mechanism and reduces the risk of premature wear caused by movement at bolted joints.
