Distance piece
A rear wheel distance piece (spacer) from the quickly-detachable rear wheel assembly, part 37-1597.
This is a distance piece, or spacer, from the quickly-detachable rear wheel setup used on Triumphs of this era. It's a simple component that sits in the wheel assembly to keep the hub, bearings, or other rotating parts spaced correctly when the wheel is mounted.

The catalog lists this under the QUICKLY DETACHABLE REAR WHEEL figure, so its job is tied to that particular wheel design rather than a standard fixed rear wheel. The older alias W1597 is the same physical part under its earlier number.
We don't have much more detail on this one beyond its place in that figure. If you're rebuilding a QD rear wheel and need to confirm this spacer is the right one for your hub, call the shop and we'll sort out fitment before you order.
