Hobart WS-16-18 Washer Replacement Part

Product Description

The HOBART WS-16-18 is a genuine OEM replacement washer designed for use in Hobart commercial foodservice equipment. Washers of this type serve as sealing, spacing, or load-distribution components within assemblies, preventing metal-on-metal contact, reducing wear, and maintaining proper fastener tension over time. At 0.1 inches in height and roughly 4.45 inches in length, this is a low-profile, flat washer suited to tight mechanical assemblies. Service technicians and equipment repair professionals install this part during scheduled maintenance or component replacement to restore equipment to factory specification.

This washer is intended for use in commercial foodservice equipment applications where a genuine OEM part is required to maintain equipment integrity. It is appropriate for use during routine service calls, warranty repairs, or end-of-life component replacement. When factory fitment tolerances are critical, using a direct OEM replacement like the WS-16-18 ensures the assembly performs as originally engineered.
