Titan 871-001 C-Washer

Part number 871-001 is a C-washer specifically engineered for use across a range of professional sprayer systems including 0528925N_2000_4000, Hydra M and Hydra Pro Super, and Hydra M and Hydra Pro 2000_4000 models. These industrial-grade units are designed for demanding coating applications requiring reliable, high-pressure fluid delivery up to 4000 PSI. A C-washer, also known as a half-moon washer or retaining washer, is a specialized fastener used to retain components on shafts, pins, or studs. Its distinctive C-shaped cutout allows it to be installed or removed without completely disassembling the shaft assembly, making it ideal for serviceable connections in pumps, motors, and linkage mechanisms.

Manufactured from high-strength materials with precision-formed geometry, this C-washer provides reliable retention while withstanding the forces and vibration encountered in high-pressure sprayer applications. The open-sided design allows it to slide into a machined groove on a shaft, locking components such as gears, pulleys, or linkages in place. When installed, the C-washer fills the groove and prevents axial movement of the retained component. Its shape allows for easy installation and removal with simple tools, facilitating field service and repair without specialized equipment.

These washers are subjected to continuous vibration, cyclic loading, and potential corrosion. Failure modes include wear or deformation of the C-shaped opening, corrosion weakening the material, and loss of retention force. A damaged or missing C-washer can allow retained components to shift on their shafts, leading to misalignment, increased wear, and potential equipment failure. Replacement with genuine 871-001 C-washer ensures proper component retention and maintains the mechanical integrity of Hydra M, Hydra Pro, and related spray systems.
