Titan 9822106 Lock washer #8 Ext Tooth Zinc

Part number 9822106 is a #8 External Tooth Lock Washer with zinc plating specifically engineered for use across a range of professional sprayer systems including Helix FR, Helix LP, Helix VR, SprayTech CS 55, SprayTech HVLP PowerCast, and SprayTech PowerCast. These professional units include plural component proportioners, HVLP turbine systems, and air-assisted airless sprayers for residential, commercial, and industrial finishing applications. This external tooth lock washer is a critical fastener component designed to prevent loosening under vibration and to provide reliable electrical grounding connections.

The external teeth are designed to bite into both the fastener head and the mating surface, creating a strong mechanical lock that resists vibration-induced loosening. The #8 size is compatible with #8 screws and bolts. The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance, protecting the washer from rust and chemical exposure in demanding job site environments. In electrical applications, the sharp teeth cut through paint, anodizing, or surface oxides to establish a positive electrical ground path, essential for safety and proper operation of electronic controls.

These lock washers are subjected to continuous vibration, clamping force, and potential corrosion. Failure modes include loss of spring tension, tooth wear or deformation, and corrosion. A damaged or missing lock washer can allow fasteners to loosen, leading to component misalignment, electrical connection failure, and equipment damage. Replacement with genuine 9822106 lock washer ensures reliable fastening and proper electrical grounding.
