Truck trunnion washers are an important part of heavy trucks and other vehicles with trunnion mounts. A trunnion washer is a washer-shaped part used to help distribute loads and reduce friction between the trunnion, cylindrical shaft-like structure, and mounting surface.

These washers are typically constructed of durable materials such as steel or brass to withstand the heavy loads and constant vibration found in trucking applications. They are designed to fit precisely on the trunnions, creating a smooth bearing surface that allows for proper articulation and movement.

One of the main functions of the truck trunnion washer is to evenly distribute the weight and forces exerted on the trunnion mount. This helps to prevent excessive wear and tear on the mounting surface and the trunnion itself. By providing a larger contact area, trunnion washers help to reduce local pressure points and minimize friction, ultimately prolonging the lifespan of the trunnion assembly.
