The GRACO 104373 is a thrust washer designed to provide axial support and reduce friction between moving parts within GRACO equipment, such as agitator assemblies. Its material is not explicitly specified in available documentation, but thrust washers in similar applications are typically made from durable metals or engineered plastics. The part is intended to maintain proper clearance and alignment in the agitator drive shaft assembly.

Key Features:

• Thrust Washer
• 1/2 in. ID x 1 in. OD
• Compatible with GRACO agitator assemblies as referenced in equipment manuals
• Provides axial support and reduces friction
• Helps maintain proper clearance between moving parts
• Essential for reliable operation of agitator assemblies

Applications:
Used in GRACO agitator assemblies to support the drive shaft and maintain proper alignment and clearance during operation.

Installation Notes:

• Using a genuine GRACO thrust washer ensures proper fit, function, and longevity of the equipment, reducing the risk of premature wear or failure.
• Install the thrust washer as part of the agitator drive shaft assembly, ensuring it is positioned to maintain the specified clearance (e.g., 0.015 in. between the thrust washer and the top of the shaft support as per manual instructions)
• Tighten all associated hardware securely to prevent movement and ensure a proper seal
• Refer to the equipment manual for detailed installation steps and torque specifications
• Regularly inspect the thrust washer for wear or damage during routine maintenance
• Replace the thrust washer if signs of excessive wear or deformation are observed
• Use only genuine GRACO replacement parts for optimal performance and safety
