ZF 0730.008.816 WASHER for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0730.008.816 WASHER for WG200 is a precision-engineered OEM genuine component designed to maintain critical sealing and load distribution within the WG 200 series transmission. This hardened steel washer sits between the gear train and housing assembly, ensuring proper axial clearance and preventing metal-on-metal contact during high-torque operations. As an integral part of the drivetrain, the SKU 0730.008.816 works in concert with the 4460165051 CONSOLE and 4460368311 CONSOLE to stabilize shaft alignment under load. This washer is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, making it a direct replacement for worn units in WG200 transmissions used in heavy-duty commercial vehicles.

Symptoms of Failure

• Transmission oil seepage at the housing joint: A degraded 0730.008.816 washer can no longer maintain the seal, leading to visible oil leaks around the WG200 casing during operation.
• Abnormal gear whine or grinding noise: When this washer loses its dimensional integrity, axial play increases, causing gear teeth to misalign and produce metallic sounds under load.
• Intermittent gear slipping under acceleration: Worn washers allow the shaft to shift position, resulting in momentary loss of torque transfer during hard pulls or uphill driving.
• Vibration through the shift lever: Excessive clearance from a flattened washer transmits driveline harmonics directly into the cab, indicating immediate replacement is needed.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This OEM washer is specifically validated for the ZF WG200 series transmission, including the WG200, WG180, and WG210 variants. It is also compatible with select ZF Ecomat 4HP and 5HP models that share the same shaft diameter and load specifications. The 0730.008.816 is frequently replaced alongside the 0636011429 HEXAGON SCREW and the 0730100365 WASHER during full transmission overhauls. Always verify your transmission serial number against ZF’s parts catalog before ordering.
