Mastercut Lawn Mower Parts

This is a genuine replacement self-tapping hex screw with a blunt nose designed for lawn mowers and lawn tractors. It is used in a variety of locations for the engine assembly of lawn mowers. The self-tapping feature allows the metal screw threads to tightly secure to other metal. The blunt nose requires the use of a pre-drilled pilot hole smaller than the diameter of the screw. These screws do not interchange well. Be sure to check the owner's manual to ensure the correct part number. The hex head needs a socket wrench for the easiest removal and replacement. When removing this type of screw, stripped threads can occur. If this happens, use a screw of the same type in a slightly larger size to accommodate for the damage. Typically, this type of screw would need to be replaced when removed to access another part of the lawn mower for replacement, such as the carburetor. This an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and is sold individually. This screw fits products by Bolens, Brute, Columbia, County Line, Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Huskee, Huskee Supreme, MTD Black, MTD Gold, Mastercut, Murray, Troy Bilt, Yard Man, & Yard Machines.

With small gasoline-powered tools that require control panels, this hex screw attaches the panel to the handles of the tools. Machined to be durable, important screws such as these take a real beating. In their locations at critical points on the handle, the hex screws are considered "wear items," and thus periodically, they must be replaced. The control panel itself is often a location of extreme forces, jostling, and abrupt movement in unpredictable directions. The constant movement, with sheet metal rubbing against the hex screws from every direction, make wear inevitable. The manufacturers recommend that spare screws of this type be kept on hand if the heavy use of the equipment is expected. Among the gasoline-powered tools that use these screws are snowblowers, yard tractors, mowers, tiller, chippers, shredders, and other tools requiring hand-maneuvered levers. These screws are compatible with a number of equipment brands and manufacturers, including MTD, Ryobi, Poulan, Yard-Man, Bolens, Troy-Bilt, and Yard Machines.

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.
