Function of the Flat Washer
The 0049352SRV Flat Washer is a fastening component used to:
- Distribute bolt or screw load across a wider area
- Help protect mounting surfaces from fastener damage

- Provide spacing where specified
- Help maintain proper component alignment

- Restore the original hardware configuration
Using the correct OEM washer helps ensure that the connected component is secured with the intended spacing and load distribution.
Common Signs Replacement Is Needed
Replace or inspect the washer if you notice:
- Washer is missing
- Washer is bent, warped, or cracked
- Mounting hole is enlarged or distorted
- Surface shows excessive corrosion or rust
- Zinc plating is heavily deteriorated
- Washer no longer sits flat
- Fastener has damaged the mounting surface
- Incorrect washer size was previously installed
- A service procedure specifies new mounting hardware
A damaged or incorrectly sized washer may prevent the fastener from distributing load properly or securing the component as intended.
Installation & Service Notes
Shut down the generator, disconnect all electrical loads, and allow the equipment to cool completely before beginning service. Disconnect the starting battery and spark plug wire where applicable to help prevent accidental starting.
Identify the correct mounting location using the appropriate Generac parts diagram or service manual. Place the Generac 0049352SRV Flat Washer in the specified position and install the associated bolt, screw, nut, or other hardware. Tighten the fastener to the manufacturer’s specified torque.
Important: A 5/16-inch designation generally refers to the nominal fastener size and does not necessarily describe the washer’s exact outside diameter or thickness. Always verify the original part number, mounting location, and required dimensions before ordering. Do not substitute an incorrect washer grade, material, thickness, or diameter.
Maintenance Recommendations
- Inspect mounting hardware during routine generator maintenance
- Replace bent, cracked, corroded, or missing washers promptly
- Confirm that installed washers sit flat against the mounting surface
- Use the washer only in its designated hardware location
- Check related bolts, screws, and nuts for thread damage
- Tighten fasteners to the manufacturer’s specified torque
- Avoid reusing severely deformed or corroded washers
- Use genuine OEM replacement hardware to maintain proper fit and secure assembly
