000071006 Spring Lock Washer for Mitsubishi FB20CB Forklift

Overview

The 000071006 SPRING LOCK WASHER WITH PRESSURE GAUGE is a replacement hardware component for Mitsubishi electric counterbalance forklifts. Although small, this washer performs a critical job: its spring action maintains steady clamping force on threaded connections associated with pressure gauge installations, even under constant vibration and thermal cycling. Over time, ordinary washers can flatten and lose tension, allowing fittings to back off and pressure readings to drift. Fitting a fresh 000071006 washer restores proper preload, helps keep gauge connections tight, and protects the surrounding hydraulic components from leaks and premature wear.

Compatibility

This part is specified for the Mitsubishi FB-CB and FB-LCB series of electric forklifts, covering capacity classes from 2.0 to 3.5 tonnes. The 000071006 for FB20CB is equally suitable for the sibling trucks in the range:

• FB-CB series: FB20CB, FB25CB, FB30CB and FB35CB
• FB-LCB variants: FB20LCB and FB25LCB

Because these capacity brackets share common hardware across the series, one washer covers the full FB20CB to FB35CB span. As with any forklift part, always verify the number against your truck’s data plate or parts manual before ordering to confirm a correct fit.

Quality and Reliability

Mitsubishi engineers its electric forklifts for intensive warehouse and industrial use, and the fasteners in these trucks are matched to that duty. The 000071006 washer is supplied to match the original part’s dimensions and spring characteristics, so it seats correctly and holds torque as intended. Consistent material quality means predictable clamping force over the service life of the connection, reducing the risk of loosened fittings, escaping pressure and unplanned downtime. Each washer from forkliftpartssearch.com is supplied against the listed part number and specifications, so what arrives matches what you ordered.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

• Relieve system pressure and allow the area to cool before removing a pressure gauge or adjacent fitting.
• Always replace a spring lock washer rather than reusing it; a compressed washer can no longer deliver reliable preload.
• Clean the mating surfaces of the bolt, fitting and mounting point before assembly.
• Tighten to the torque value given in the Mitsubishi service manual for your specific model.
• Inspect lock washers during scheduled services, especially on high-hour trucks or machines working in dusty, high-vibration environments.
• If a pressure gauge reading becomes unstable, check the washer and fitting seal as a first, low-cost diagnostic step.
