Bolens Leaf Blower Parts

This lock washer is used frequently for a number of applications on power yard equipment. The size, 5/16, is the default for many small engine housing and manifold applications. Lock washers are used with machined bolts to fasten engine blocks to the housing of the equipment being used. The compressed washer is able to handle the constant vibration of the small gasoline engine without losing the seal between the screw or bolt and the housing. Typically these lock washers only need to be replaced when they are misplaced during repairs or when the screws that attach them have to be chiseled or cut away, meaning the washers are destroyed as well. These OEM certified replacement washers have been manufactured to the same specifications as the originals they are replacing. In addition to lawn mowers, lock washers of this type and size are frequently used on blowers, lawn tractors, cultivators, snowblowers, and trimmers. Brands compatible with this type of washer are Murray, Husky, Poulan, Bolens, Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Yard Machines, MTD, and Ryobi.

This is a replacement part for select riding mowers designed to ensure smooth rotation for years of use. This part is circular and tapers off into a hexagonal shape to support rotating shafts that create friction inside of machinery. Rotating parts are almost a given in most machinery like riding mowers, so the hex flange bearing provides support in multiple ways to parts such as wheels, rotors, and gears.The hex flange bearing serves two fundamental roles to make machinery run efficiently. For starters, friction will inevitably occur in rotating shafts, so bearings reduce the amount of friction and related wear and tear. The second function of this part is protecting the rotating from damage due to pressure created during operation.This genuine OEM sourced replacement part is intended to be used for lawn tractors from MTD and other yard machines. This part is compatible with manufacturers including Yard Machines, Bolens, Yard Man, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, and Husky. A wrench may be used for an easier replacement installation.

This genuine OEM replacement part is a flange bearing designed to be used with a wide range of lawn tractors. A bearing is a mechanical part made to restrict movement and prevent other parts from shifting about in the tractor. This is a flange bearing, referring to its particular shape. The bearing slides into place while the flange creates an added layer of protection around the connection. While restricting motion, bearings experience a lot of friction. After a long period, a bearing may eventually begin to wear away and other parts may start to feel loose or pull apart. This can cause more widespread damage in a lawn tractor, such as a broken suspension or disconnected lower deck. The difficulty of this repair will depend largely on where the flange bearing that needs replacing is located. The odds are that any repair will require a socket wrench set, a screwdriver, and a pair of pliers to access any flange bearing. This replacement flange bearing is sourced from its original manufacturer and will fit tractors made by Ryobi, MTD, Bolens, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, Yard Man, and Yard Machines.

Few parts fulfill as many roles on lawn mowers and other landscaping power tools than the cover screw. This screw serves to attach metal housing parts, assemblies, and shrouds to one another on equipment such as power vacuums, snow blowers, edgers, tillers, hedge trimmers, lawn tractors, leaf blowers, grass trimmers and cultivators. As these are extremely durable metal screws, they seldom fail under ordinary use. It should be noted, however, that they are most often used at connection and pressure points. Stresses at these junctions sometime loosen screws, causing them to be lost or occasionally resulting in stripped threads. It's also occasionally the case that these screws are lost during repair or routine maintenance of yard equipment because of their small size. Users should make sure to consult their owner's manuals for replacement steps and any special instructions. Because of their small size and the ease of losing them during repair work or maintenance, it's recommended to keep a supply of appropriately sized screws on hand. Most importantly, when replacing a part make sure to use a genuine OEM replacement part. They are manufactured according to the specs of the original parts and are perfect replicas.
