Usually ships within 4 - 14 days
This is a genuine replacement bolt that is designed specifically for use on select lawn tractors. This tractor bolt is a specialty piece of hardware designed for use on the steering segment gear. This screw holds the gear in place and is exposed to constant vibrations and repetitive motion as a result. Over time, that can result in damage, wear, or even total breakage of the bolt and require a replacement. If the bolt isn't functional or is missing, the steering segment gear will not be secured and that can lead to further damage if left unattended. Using a genuine replacement part like this will guarantee an exact fit for compatible models. This genuine OEM gear bolt is manufactured by MTD. It is compatible with lawn and garden equipment from RYOBI, HUSKEE, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, Yard Machines, Yard Man, and Cub Cadet, along with select models from MTD. The bolt works for more than 100 compatible models. It is made of durable metal and sold as an individual unit. A wrench or socket will be required to replace this part. Always wear gloves when performing repairs on lawn and garden equipment and allow the engine to cool before doing any work.
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.
Hex screw fastener for securing lawn mower components. Replace if stripped, rusted, or missing to ensure proper assembly and equipment stability.
The hex head self-tapping screws are designed for a number of applications in lawn and garden equipment, primarily holding machinery and engine parts together. Over time, screws can become stripped, fall out, or otherwise get damaged, resulting in a need for replacement. When replacing screws and other hardware, always be sure to disengage or disable any power supply to reduce the risk of shock or other injuries. The self-tapping screw makes it easy to replace, and the fact that they are manufacturer-guaranteed ensures a perfect fit for compatible machines. This OEM self-tapping screw is compatible with several machines from RYOBI, MTD, Husky, Cub Cadet, Yard-Man, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, and Yard Machines. It can be found in lawnmowers and tractors and can be in multiple locations, depending on the exact model. This screw is sold as a single piece; order multiple quantities if needed.
Hex cap screw fastener for outdoor power equipment. Secures components with hexagon-shaped head. Replace if stripped, broken, or missing threads.
This OEM screw is a fastener with a trimmed six-sided or hexagonal head plus a washer face on the bearing surface. It is one of the most commonly used fasteners. Considered standard hardware, this component has multiple applications and can be used on woodworking, machine assembly, and mechanical repair. The screw is 3/4 long and has a thread size of 5/16 -18. A hex cap screw is installed into tapped holes by turning the head to fit and tighten. This is the fastener of choice in applications where tight tolerance is necessary. This is a genuine factory part sourced from the manufacturer and is sold individually. It can be used with Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Ryobi, Troy-Bilt, Murray, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Montgomery Wards, Bolens, Yard-Man, and MasterCut brands of lawn maintenance equipment including lawn mowers, snowblowers, tillers, leaf blowers, log splitters, and wood chippers.
This hex bolt is a necessary component used in a variety of small to medium sized gasoline powered engines used primarily in yard work, gardening, and landscaping. The primary use of this hex bolt is to secure the idler pulley assembly to the body of the machine. The idler pulley functions to engage the turning mechanism of the yard tool when engaged. The power yard tools that require an idler pulley which would use this screw are tillers, riding mowers, yard tractors, tillers, snow blowers and chippers. Engaging the rotating part of the yard tool places a great deal of resistance on the idler pulley, which may eventually result in it needing to be replaced. When replacing the idler pulley assembly, it's important to remember that the attaching hardware, such as the hex bolt, has also experienced a great deal of wear and should be replaced as well. This hex bolt attaches the idler pulley assembly directly to the machine housing and can be removed with a 9/16 wrench. Make sure when replacing the bolt to use a genuine OEM manufactured part that is identical to the manufacturer's original piece. This bolt is compatible with the following brands: Yard-Man, Bolens, Craftsman, Yard Machines, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, Huskee, Ryobi, Murray, MTD, MasterCut, and Montgomery Wards.
