KP-60A Brass Washer KP-6025
The KP-6025 washer is an OEM replacement part for the KP-60A handpiece line from KUPA. It is a thin metal washer (brass/copper alloy) that fits in the front or internal spindle assembly area of the handpiece. Its role is to provide proper spacing, alignment, and thin support in the high-speed rotating section of the tool.
Features
-
Ensures correct spacing and support within the front/spindle assembly of the handpiece, which is critical for smooth, vibration-free rotation at high RPM.
-
By using the OEM washer, you maintain proper tolerance and clearance — reducing risk of mis-alignment, bit wobble or uneven wear.
-
Because it is a small, thin part, replacing it proactively (especially if worn or deformed) is an inexpensive way to preserve overall tool performance and extend lifespan.
-
Using original KUPA-specified parts helps maintain service integrity and fitment in the precision handpiece.
-
Material: Copper/brass washer alloy (“cooper” in listing) — suited for high-speed applications.
Dimensions
-
Outside Diameter (OD): ~ 39.593 mm (≈ 1.56") (though the listing shows 39.593mm followed by “0.31"” which appears inconsistent).
Installation Tips
-
Confirm that your handpiece indeed uses part #KP-6025 (check parts list or existing washer).
-
Confirm actual washer dimensions in your unit match listed spec; if internal modifications or upgrades have been made, dimensions may vary.
-
Ensure the seating surfaces where the washer will sit are clean, undamaged, and free of debris — a new thin washer in a damaged housing may not restore full performance.
-
Unplug the handpiece and ensure it is fully stopped before disassembly.
-
Remove the front housing or components necessary to access the washer location.
-
Remove the old washer, clean the area of any metal shavings or lubricant residue.
-
Insert the new KP-6025 washer ensuring it lies flat, is uncontorted, and matches the orientation of prior washer (if applicable).
-
Re-assemble the handpiece and run it unloaded (no bit) at low speed to verify smooth rotation and minimal vibration before full use.
