The Shimano Non-turn Washer 8L Green is a small but essential component designed to keep your internal gear hub axle correctly aligned in the dropout. Commonly used with Shimano Nexus and similar hub systems, this non-turn washer helps prevent the axle from rotating under pedaling load, ensuring smooth shifting and consistent performance. Its distinctive green color makes it easy to identify during installation or maintenance, helping mechanics and home users quickly select the correct washer for the job.
By securely locating the axle flats in the frame or fork dropout, the Shimano Non-turn Washer 8L Green contributes to long-term reliability and protects both the hub and frame from unwanted movement. It is typically used as part of a matched set of washers, each color-coded for specific dropout angles or positions. Ideal for replacing worn or lost original parts, this washer is a cost-effective way to restore proper function to your Shimano internal gear hub system and maintain safe, predictable riding characteristics.
