This is a replacement screw that is a genuine part for select outdoor power equipment units. The shoulder screw is a unique screw that is designed to provide a secure fit while still allowing the unit the joint that it needs to operate properly. Depending on the unit and application, this screw is designed to provide rotation for pulleys, gears, and other moving parts. When they are damaged or wear out, or the threads strip, they will need to be replaced. There are several incidents that could cause damage to a shoulder screw. Regardless, a replacement with this genuine OEM part will be necessary. This OEM shoulder screw is manufactured to exact specifications and can be used with models from Cub Cadet, MTD, and Troy-Bilt. This part will require a socket or nut driver to replace. The shoulder screw is a fairly simple replacement. Allow the unit to cool and wear gloves for hand protection. Since this part has multiple applications, owners should consult their parts diagram for the exact placement of this shoulder screw. The screw is sold individually.
There are multiple uses for the 5/16-18 Hex Screw. It is often used with small gasoline-powered yard equipment such as lawn and garden machines. While hex screws such as these may be used in edgers and snowblowers, the most frequent use this screw is in yard tractors. This variety of screw is commonly used in attaching the various appendages of gas-powered equipment to a central operating platform. In particular, these hex screws are used to secure the engine block of power tools to the frame or housing of the equipment. Once in place, these fasteners have an almost unbreakable strength to them. This is so much so the case that often, in order to detach the engine manifold and repair the inner workings of an engine, the bolts must be chiseled or cut loose. In such cases, it is necessary for the bolts to be replaced during reassembly. Manufacturers insist that genuine OEM replacement parts be used in the rebuilding process. These replacement parts were manufactured to the same exacting specifications used to make the original screws. These OEM screws are compatible with equipment made and sold by Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Husky, MTD, Bolens, and Yard Machines.
