Aftermarket Thermo King® Hardware Parts for Reefers & APUs
Thermo Engine Supply stocks application-specific hardware for Thermo King® transport refrigeration units — bolts, screws, nuts, pins, keys, plugs, rings, seals, spacers, and washers. Each part is identified by part number and matched to the exact dimensions, thread specs, and material requirements of engine, compressor, and refrigeration assemblies. All components are aftermarket replacements. Thermo Engine Supply is not an authorized Thermo King® dealer.

Hardware Types
Transport refrigeration units require different fasteners depending on the component and service location. Oil sump assemblies use specific bolt sizes and thread patterns to maintain oil pressure. Drive couplings require high-strength cap screws rated for continuous vibration loads. Fuel injection pumps rely on sealing washers that hold under high fuel pressure.
Bolts & Screws
Thermo Engine Supply stocks cap screws, hex head bolts, flange bolts, and socket head cap screws in metric and imperial thread standards. Application-specific items include oil sump bolts, oil pump housing and cover bolts, drive coupling bolts, and piston head nuts. Grade markings on bolt heads indicate tensile strength. Compressor mounting and drivetrain applications require Grade 8 or metric 10.9 equivalents to prevent bolt failure and equipment damage.
Sealing washers are stocked in copper, nylon, and steel to match the sealing requirements of different assemblies. Copper sealing rings provide high-temperature resistance for injection pump applications and deform under compression to create leak-proof joints. Nylon sealing rings work in lower-pressure refrigeration circuits where chemical compatibility with refrigerant oils is required. Steel flat washers and lock washers support structural fastening where vibration resistance is the priority. Always replace sealing washers during reassembly — reusing compressed seals can cause refrigerant leaks or fuel system failures.
