King Performance Titanium Front Beam Washers — 13mm ID x 23mm OD x 3mm, Pack of 4
The front beam bolts carry the whole front suspension, and the washers under their heads sit right in the spray from the front wheels. Stock steel washers rust, stain the frame head and make the next teardown harder. King Performance makes these thick titanium flat washers specifically for front-end beam bolts, so the hardware that holds your beam to the car stays clean and corrosion-free. They are the natural partner to King's titanium front beam mounting hardware.
Vehicle fitment
King lists these washers for front-end beam bolts. They suit torsion-bar front beams on the air-cooled VW Beetle (not the Super Beetle strut front end), Karmann Ghia and Thing, and on dune buggies, Baja Bugs and off-road cars running a VW-style beam. The 13mm bore clears a 12mm bolt shank; measure your bolts before ordering if your beam or frame head is aftermarket.
Features
- Titanium — will not rust or stain the frame head
- Thick 3mm section for a firm bearing face under the bolt head
- 23mm outside diameter spreads the clamping load
- Pack of 4

Installation notes
- Support the beam properly before removing any beam bolts; the car must be safely on stands.
- Replace one bolt at a time where possible so the beam stays located.
- Use anti-seize on titanium threads and where the washer bears on steel.
- Torque beam bolts to the factory specification for your vehicle and re-check after the first drive and after off-road use.
FAQ
How many washers come in a pack?
Four.
What are they for?
King lists them for front-end beam bolts on air-cooled VW beams.
Do they fit a Super Beetle?
Super Beetles use a strut front suspension without a torsion beam, so these are intended for beam-type front ends.
Are there matching titanium bolts?
Yes. See King's titanium front beam mounting kit and front beam and shock tower bolt kit.
Do I need anti-seize?
Yes. Use anti-seize on all titanium hardware.
Are they street legal?
King sells them for off-highway use only.
