Its unique waved shape provides a controlled axial load in a very limited space, ensuring that the locking mechanism operates with the correct amount of friction. Over time, these washers can lose their \"spring\" or crack, leading to a loose-feeling lock handle that fails to secure the tool head properly. Replacing a worn wave washer restores the factory tension to the assembly, improving the stability of the mount\/demount head during tire service. It is a small but essential part of the high-precision mechanical systems that make Coats equipment the industry standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct highlights\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxial Tensioning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides consistent pressure for the lock handle cam in limited spaces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResilient Spring Steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manufactured to maintain its waved shape over thousands of cycles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable Surface:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resistant to the friction and heat generated during frequent locking operations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRestores Precision:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eliminates play in the tool head locking mechanism for safer tire changes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM Reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8182371\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Diameter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-5\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wave Spring Washer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e am8182371\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Manufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirect replacement models\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoats:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8182371\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFits Models:\u003c\/strong\u003e Most Coats rim clamp tire changers with a swing arm or vertical slide lock.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou will receive the same product or an OEM-Equivalent that meets the highest standard of the OEM with warranty that will be a direct-fit.
