ZF 0730.107.711 WASHER | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 0730.107.711 WASHER is a precision-engineered OEM genuine thrust washer designed to maintain critical axial clearances within ZF heavy-duty construction machinery transmissions. This component sits between rotating shafts and stationary housings, specifically within the planetary gear sets and clutch packs, where it absorbs axial loads and prevents metal-on-metal contact. The SKU 0730.107.711 is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances to ensure consistent oil film retention and load distribution. When installed alongside the 2094104412: MAIN SHAFT and the 2094304054: MAIN SHAFT, this washer forms a critical interface that stabilizes the entire rotating assembly under high torque conditions.

Symptoms of Failure

• Transmission oil leaks from the bell housing area – A worn 0730.107.711 washer allows excessive axial play, forcing seals to misalign and weep fluid. This is a common long-tail search query for “ZF transmission oil leak behind torque converter.”
• Gear slipping under load in forward gears – When the washer thickness degrades, clutch pack clearance increases, causing delayed engagement and slipping. Operators often search “ZF WG200 slipping in 3rd gear” when this occurs.
• Metallic grinding noise during deceleration – Thrust washer failure permits the 2094106010: SHIFT SYSTEM components to contact housing walls, producing a distinct grinding sound.
• Erratic shift timing and harsh engagement – Loss of washer integrity alters the preload on the 2094206001: GEARSHIFT SHAFT, confusing hydraulic control modules and leading to hard shifts.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This washer is integral to ZF’s WG series powershift transmissions used in construction machinery. Based on its geometry and load rating, the 0730.107.711 is compatible with the following ZF transmission models: WG180, WG200, WG210, and WG240. It is also found in certain variants of the 4WG200 and 5WG210 series used in wheel loaders, graders, and dump trucks. Always verify the washer thickness against your transmission’s service manual, as these models may use stacked shims alongside this part.
