The Multiquip 0043206000 Lock Washer, M6 is a genuine OEM fastener component designed for GBX12SK and GBX24BK balloon systems. As a direct OEM replacement, this lock washer meets the original design specification to ensure secure fastening and proper tension retention in the assembly. Sourced directly through Multiquip's authorized parts network, this is the exact same component installed at the factory. Confirm your model code against GBX12SK or GBX24BK to ensure a correct fitment before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Fastener Grade — Manufactured to the original M6 specification, delivering the correct hardness, spring tension, and bite angle required to resist loosening under vibration and operational load.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original M6 thread pitch and outer diameter, seating and torquing exactly as the factory-installed washer without any rework to mating hardware.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for GBX12SK and GBX24BK balloon systems; cross-reference your model code before ordering to ensure compatibility.
- Vibration Resistance — The split-ring design bites into both the fastener and mating surface, maintaining clamp load across sustained vibration cycles and preventing bolt back-out during operation.
- Fastener Integrity Matters — A worn, deformed, or incorrect lock washer allows fasteners to loosen progressively, leading to misalignment, component shift, or accelerated wear on surrounding hardware.
A lock washer is a hardened spring-steel ring with a split that creates opposing tension when a bolt or nut is tightened against it. This tension bites into both the fastener face and the mating surface, resisting rotational loosening caused by vibration, thermal cycling, and mechanical load. When a lock washer is missing, flattened, or the wrong size, fastener preload is compromised — bolts can work loose gradually, leading to joint movement, noise, and potential damage to the components being held in place. Replacing worn or missing lock washers with the correct OEM-specification part is a straightforward but critical step in any reassembly or maintenance procedure.
