ZF 4460.308.087 SLIDING PAD for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 4460.308.087 SLIDING PAD is a precision-engineered wear component designed for the WG 200 Series transmission family. This OEM genuine part functions as a low-friction interface within the clutch or shift mechanism, reducing metal-on-metal contact during gear engagement. Positioned inside the transmission housing, the sliding pad ensures smooth axial movement of associated components. The SKU 4460.308.087 is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, guaranteeing proper load distribution and extended service life in heavy-duty industrial applications.

Symptoms of Failure

When the ZF 4460.308.087 SLIDING PAD deteriorates, operators often notice delayed or harsh gear engagement during shifting. A second common symptom is intermittent gear slipping under load, particularly in WG200 transmissions operating at high torque. You may also detect metallic grinding noises emanating from the transmission housing, indicating the pad has worn beyond its service limit. Finally, contaminated transmission fluid with metallic particles is a clear sign that the sliding pad surface has degraded, requiring immediate replacement to prevent damage to adjacent components.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This sliding pad is primarily engineered for the ZF WG200 series transmissions, including models WG180, WG200, and WG210. It also fits select variants of the ZF Ecomat 4HP and 5HP series where the sliding pad geometry matches the shift rail assembly. Always verify the part number 4460.308.087 against your transmission’s parts catalog before installation. For WG200 rebuilds, this pad is typically replaced alongside the 4460165051: CONSOLE and 4460368311: CONSOLE to ensure proper alignment. Secure installation requires the 0636011429: HEXAGON SCREW and 0730100365: WASHER for correct torque retention.
