NON-METALLIC WASHERS

When downtime matters, having the correct part number helps. Non Metallic Washers is identified as part 03-1409-20. Symptoms can present as seepage, intermittent operation, abnormal noise, or a cycle that won’t complete normally—depending on where this part sits in the system. If the fault changes with vibration or after moving panels, look for borderline fitment, loose connectors, or wear marks around the installation area. A short post-repair check—visual inspection plus a full cycle—helps confirm the issue is resolved without introducing new leaks or noise. Once the root cause is corrected, performance should stabilize and output should return to normal. Seals, gaskets, and washers prevent leaks at joints and interfaces. Once compressed or torn, drips often return even after re-tightening. Take a photo before disassembly so you can confirm orientation and fastener locations during reassembly. If the part interacts with water, do a leak check during the first run and again after a short operating period. Clean the area around the repair so debris doesn’t interfere with fitment or sealing surfaces.

Recheck fasteners after a short run-in period; vibration can loosen hardware if it isn’t seated correctly.
