ZF 0730.005.716 WASHER for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0730.005.716 WASHER is a precision-engineered OEM genuine component designed specifically for the WG 200 Series transmission. This hardened steel washer functions as a critical load-spreading interface between fasteners and transmission housing surfaces, ensuring proper clamp load distribution during assembly. As part of the internal lubrication circuit, it also helps maintain correct oil sealing at joint interfaces. The SKU 0730.005.716 is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, guaranteeing a perfect fit within the WG200 planetary gear set. When replacing this washer, technicians often also inspect the 4460165051 CONSOLE and 4460368311 CONSOLE for wear, as these components share the same mounting bracket assembly.

Symptoms of Failure

• Transmission oil seepage at bolt interfaces: A worn or crushed 0730.005.716 washer loses its sealing ability, allowing ATF fluid to weep past fastener heads, often visible as dark stains on the transmission casing.
• Loose mounting bolts causing gear rattle: When the washer collapses under torque, fasteners lose preload, leading to audible vibration and potential misalignment of the 0636011429 HEXAGON SCREW assembly.
• Intermittent gear engagement hesitation: A deformed washer can alter the stack height of the valve body or clutch pack, causing delayed shifts under load.
• Metallic debris in transmission fluid: Advanced washer failure produces fine steel particles that contaminate the hydraulic circuit, accelerating wear on adjacent components like the 0730100365 WASHER.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This washer is engineered for the ZF WG 200 Series transmission family, including the WG180, WG200, and WG210 models. It is also compatible with select ZF Ecomat 4HP and 5HP variants that share the same bolt pattern for the oil pan and valve body. The 0730.005.716 is frequently used in conjunction with the 4460165051 CONSOLE and 4460368311 CONSOLE in the transfer case mounting assembly. For heavy-duty applications, verify fitment with the 0636011429 HEXAGON SCREW to ensure correct thread engagement depth.
