ZF 4460.308.133 SLIDING PAD for WG200 | OEM Genuine Part

Overview

The ZF 4460.308.133 SLIDING PAD is a critical wear component engineered specifically for the WG200 series transmission. This OEM genuine part functions as a low-friction interface between the shift fork and the synchronizer hub, ensuring precise gear engagement and smooth load transfer within the transmission assembly. The SKU 4460.308.133 is manufactured to ZF’s exacting tolerances, providing consistent axial movement and reducing metal-on-metal contact during shifting operations. Positioned directly on the shift rail mechanism, this sliding pad absorbs lateral forces and maintains alignment under heavy-duty industrial applications.

Symptoms of Failure

When the ZF 4460.308.133 SLIDING PAD deteriorates, operators typically notice hard shifting or gear engagement difficulty, particularly when transitioning between forward and reverse ranges. A second common symptom is intermittent gear slippage under load, often accompanied by a grinding noise during acceleration. Third, excessive axial play in the shift linkage may develop, causing the transmission to pop out of gear on inclines. Finally, metal debris in the transmission fluid indicates advanced pad wear, which can contaminate the entire hydraulic system if not addressed promptly.

Technical Specifications

Compatibility

This sliding pad is primarily designed 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 shift rail geometry matches. Always verify compatibility by cross-referencing your transmission serial number with the OEM part number 4460.308.133. For installations requiring additional mounting hardware, consider the 4460165051 CONSOLE and the 4460368311 CONSOLE to secure the shift mechanism. Use the 0636011429 HEXAGON SCREW and 0730100365 WASHER for proper torque retention during reassembly.
