ZF 0636.610.217 STUD for WG201 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0636.610.217 STUD is a precision-engineered fastening component designed for the WG 201 series transmissions. This OEM genuine part functions as a critical locating and clamping stud, securing the transmission housing assembly to the engine bellhousing or adapter plate. The SKU 0636.610.217 ensures exact thread pitch and tensile strength required for high-torque industrial applications. Without this stud, the transmission cannot maintain proper alignment under load, leading to accelerated wear on adjacent components such as the 4644101160: TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the 4644301323: TRANSMISSION HOUSING.

Symptoms of Failure

• Oil seepage at the bellhousing interface: A worn or stretched stud reduces clamping force, allowing the 4644301189: THREADED BUSH to loosen, which creates gaps for transmission fluid to escape.
• Abnormal gear engagement noise: When the stud fails to hold the transmission housing rigidly, the input shaft misaligns, causing grinding or whining sounds during shifts.
• Vibration during acceleration: A compromised stud permits micro-movement between the transmission and engine, transferring vibration through the driveline.
• Recurring loosening of the 4475280043: SCREW PLUG: If the stud is stripped or fatigued, adjacent fasteners cannot maintain torque, leading to repeated service intervals.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This STUD is specifically engineered for the ZF WG 201 series transmissions, including the WG180, WG200, and WG210 variants. It is also compatible with select ZF 4WG-200 and 5WG-200 off-highway models. The stud interfaces directly with the 4644101160: TRANSMISSION HOUSING and the 4644301323: TRANSMISSION HOUSING, ensuring correct alignment for the 4644301189: THREADED BUSH and 4475280043: SCREW PLUG. Always verify your transmission model number before ordering.
