This self-tapping bolt is an OEM replacement part that is sourced directly from the manufacturer. This self-tapping bolt is used to secure the silencer plate to the carburetor. The bolt taps its own hole as it is screwed into place. Using these bolts prevents the holes from being over-drilled or warped due to heat during shipment. The hole is the perfect size due to being tapped by the fastener.Self-tapping bolts create a tight fit and are a good choice for securing multiple layers of material. The holes do not have to be aligned before installation. The bolt makes the hole it needs through each layer. This makes it easier to disassemble and reassemble if necessary. Over time, exposure to the elements may cause the bolt to rust or corrode. If this happens, remove the damaged bolt and install a new one. This self-tapping bolt is made of heavy-duty metal and is sold individually. It is compatible with chippers, shredders, tillers, and other small engines manufactured by Cub Cadet, MTD, and Yard Machines.

This air cleaner cover is designed to house the air filter on larger lawn equipment and other outdoor power tools. There is no aspect of small engine care more necessary than protecting the air that goes into the carburetor and cylinder from yard dust. Nothing is more incapacitating to a small engine than being clogged with dust, pollen, and other particulates that are invariably stirred up during landscaping work. While the air cleaner cover itself is not a moving part and would not seem to be subject to replacement, it is occasionally the case that, through extensive use or accidental contact, the cover becomes unable to shield the air filter within it. In these cases, it is essential to replace the cover with an OEM certified replacement cover that has been manufactured to the same specification as the original. Though replacing the cover itself is quite simple, it probably a very good idea to replace the air filters at the same time. If the cover is in need of replacement, it is quite likely the filters have been exposed to excessive amounts of particulate. This cover can be used on chippers, shredders, log splitter, mowers, and a variety of other small engine/large job equipment. Compatible brands include Troy-Bilt, MTD, Yard-Man, Yard Machines, and Cub Cadet.

This is a genuine OEM clamp sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is used in various lawn and garden machines to connect hoses to fittings. It is used to connect piping to water pumps, exhaust pipes to exhaust manifolds, and other similar applications. This connection prevents fluids or air from leaking from the hose. Clamps may be spring or screw/band clamps. Spring clamps require no tools to install and remove; however, the size must be more accurate than when using screw/band clamps. Screw/band clamps are adjustable and can be tightened or loosened. Screw clamps should be inspected periodically to ensure tightness and that the clamps have not rusted.Hose clamps are installed approximately 1/4 inch below the end of the hose. If two clamps are used, there should be 1/4 inch between the two bands. When using a screw clamp, loosen the screw with a screwdriver just enough to fit the clamp over the hose. If using a spring clamp, squeeze the clamp and hold it open. Slide the clamp over the hose and then attach the hose and clamp to the fitting. Slide the clamp into place at the joint and tighten. Do not overtighten. This brass-colored clamp is a spring clamp made of metal; it is sold as an individual unit. This clamp is compatible with many different types of pipes made by various manufacturers.

Exhaust piping connects to the muffler system on small engines. Replace if cracked, corroded, or damaged to restore proper exhaust routing and function.
