ZF 0636.011.472 HEXAGON SCREW for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0636.011.472 HEXAGON SCREW is a critical fastening component engineered specifically for the WG200 series transmission. This OEM genuine part secures the valve body and control housing assembly, ensuring precise clamping force to maintain hydraulic pressure integrity within the gearbox. The SKU 0636.011.472 is a direct replacement for the original factory screw, designed to withstand high torque loads and thermal cycling common in heavy-duty industrial applications. When installed alongside the 4460165051 CONSOLE and 4460368311 CONSOLE, this hexagon screw ensures the transmission’s internal components remain rigidly aligned during operation.

Symptoms of Failure

• Hydraulic fluid seepage around valve body: A loose or fatigued hexagon screw can cause the valve body gasket to lose compression, leading to slow oil leaks that worsen under load.
• Erratic gear engagement or slipping: When this fastener fails to maintain proper clamping, internal pressure drops, resulting in delayed shifts or clutch slip during acceleration.
• Audible rattling from transmission housing: A stripped or broken 0636.011.472 screw allows the console assembly to vibrate, producing a metallic chatter at idle or low RPM.
• Torque converter shudder: Insufficient fastening force can misalign the pump housing, causing irregular fluid flow and shudder during torque converter lockup.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This hexagon screw is primarily designed for the ZF WG200 series transmissions, including models WG180, WG200, and WG210. It is also compatible with select ZF Ecomat 4HP and 5HP variants that share the same valve body mounting pattern. Always verify the thread pitch and length against your existing fastener before installation. For complete assembly, pair this screw with the 0636011429 HEXAGON SCREW and 0730100365 WASHER to ensure uniform torque distribution across the mounting flange.
