Product description

The Lower Bead Loosener (B.L.) Cylinder Washer is a specialized fastener component used in the assembly of the massive pneumatic cylinders that power Coats tire changers. This washer is positioned at the base of the bead-breaker cylinder, where it provides a stable bearing surface for mounting bolts and helps distribute the immense pressure generated during operation. Standard hardware store washers lack the thickness and metallurgical properties required to withstand the repetitive shock loads of a bead-breaking stroke. A failed or deformed washer can lead to loose mounting bolts, cylinder misalignment, or even structural failure of the bead-breaker arm. This replacement washer is engineered to the exact thickness and hardness specifications required for long-term reliability in a heavy-duty shop environment.

Product highlights

• High-Load Capacity: Specifically designed to handle the thousands of pounds of force generated by pneumatic bead-breaking systems.
• Precision Thickness: Ensures proper bolt tension and cylinder alignment for consistent mechanical performance.
• Fatigue Resistant: Manufactured from hardened steel to prevent cupping or deformation under repetitive shock loading.
• Direct System Fit: Sized specifically for the lower mounting points of Coats bead loosener cylinders.
