This hex washer screw is a genuine OEM replacement part for a variety of household and outdoor appliances. A hex washer screw is a self-piercing screw with an attached washer at the head of the screw. Self-piercing screws are quite sharp and feature a twin-lead thread to screw into a surface more effectively.

The shave plate, also called the scraper bar, is an important but often overlooked part of a snowblower. This thin metal strip sits at the bottom of the auger housing against the ground and gathers the snow the auger will expel through the chute. Made of hard plastic, the shave plate is the only part of the snowblower that actually touches the snow-covered ground without rolling. As durable as the shave plate is manufactured to be, it constantly comes into contact with unseen objects that pound, slice, and pit it. Eventually, the shave blade has to be replaced. To replace the blade, simply invert the blower, unscrew the old blade, attach the new blade, and put the blower right side up again. As long as the user is replacing the shave plate and has the machine upside down, this is an ideal time to check for damage to the wheels, the auger blades, driveshaft, and the condition of the shear pin. If this replacement is taking place in preparation for the coming winter, it might be a good time to replace the oil and oil filter as well. Be sure to use genuine OEM replacement parts that perfectly match the factory originals.
