Lawn Chief Chipper Shredder Fastener

The lock nut is a piece of standard hardware that may have a variety of applications on lawn and garden equipment, including on engines, housings, and other components. The lock nut offers a secure fit by tightening into a flange that prevents the nut from loosening like a regular nut might. Over time, the flange or the nut can become worn or damaged. In some cases, lock nuts may be lost during the process of other repairs or maintenance. Replacing them with genuine OEM parts like this lock nut is the best solution. This lock nut is compatible with hundreds of machines, including mowers, snowblowers, and chippers from MTD, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet, RYOBI, Yard-Man, Yard Machines, Bolens, and Husky. The ¼-inch lock nut has multiple locations and applications, so owners should consult their parts diagram for exact placement and part number identification. This lock nut is made of durable metal and sold as a single unit. Those who need additional pieces will have to order multiple quantities. This part will require a wrench or a socket to replace, as well as pliers and/or a screwdriver to hold the bolt or screw in place.

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.
