Overview
The ZF 4699.808.062 GK16 is a critical OEM genuine gear component engineered for the high-torque planetary sections of ZF heavy-duty transmissions used in construction machinery. This part functions as a precision-machined drive gear within the GK16 clutch pack assembly, directly transferring rotational force from the input shaft to the planetary gearset. The SKU 4699.808.062 is specifically designed to withstand extreme axial loads and thermal cycling common in wheel loaders, excavators, and dozers. When installed alongside the 4699008053: GK16 clutch hub, it ensures synchronized engagement and minimal backlash during power shifts.
Symptoms of Failure
- Erratic gear engagement under load: Worn teeth on the 4699.808.062 cause delayed or harsh shifting, especially when the transmission is hot. This is a common search query for “ZF transmission slipping in forward gear.”
- Metallic debris in transmission fluid: Spalling or pitting on the gear surface generates fine steel particles, often detected during routine oil changes. Operators searching for “metal shavings in ZF transmission oil” will find this symptom relevant.
- Whining or grinding noise from the transmission housing: As the gear loses its hardened profile, audible noise increases during acceleration or deceleration, matching queries like “ZF WG200 whining noise when driving.”
- Intermittent loss of power to the wheels: A fractured tooth can cause sudden disengagement, leading to “ZF transmission losing power intermittently” search patterns.

Compatibility
This gear is primarily compatible with ZF WG180, WG200, and WG310 series transmissions used in construction machinery. It is a direct replacement for the GK16 planetary gearset in models such as the ZF 4WG200, 6WG200, and 5WG180. The 4699.808.062 interfaces directly with the 4699101181: HOUSING and the 4699102195: INPUT shaft assembly. For output-side applications, it pairs with the 4699103131: OUTPUT flange. Always verify your transmission serial number before ordering, as minor variations exist between WG200 and WG310 series.
