Norton Thrust Washer Camshaft
A camshaft thrust washer for Norton engines, controlling camshaft end float in the timing chest.
This is a camshaft thrust washer, part number 06-1086, and the catalog record ties it to Norton's engine bottom-end work rather than anything Triumph. It shows up in the crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, camshaft, and timing gear section of the parts book, which puts it right in the timing chest area where the camshaft is located axially in the crankcase.

A thrust washer like this one controls camshaft end float, keeping the cam from walking back and forth in its bearings as it spins. It's a small part but an important one for keeping the timing gear train running true.
Our record only shows this one appearing in a single catalog listing tied to the 1975 model year, so if you're sourcing this for a different year Norton, give us a call and we'll confirm fitment before you order.
