Mastercut Log Splitter Fastener

This is a flange nut that can be used in a variety of lawn and garden equipment from different manufacturers. The nut is made of metal, measures 5/16x18, and is used to secure components in place. It also assists with preventing backing out caused by vibration. Over time, the flange nut can become damaged and will need to be replaced. If the flange nut in lawn and garden equipment has become damaged, is loose, or gets lost, then replacement is required. The level of difficulty of replacing a flange nut depends on which parts it's securing and what kind of equipment it is installed on. This flange nut is an OEM replacement part that can be used with lawn mowers, snowblowers, wood chippers, tillers, log splitters, leaf blowers, and edgers by MasterCut, Craftsman, Yard-Man, Toro, Bolens, Cub Cadet, Montgomery Wards, Ryobi, Huskee, Troy-Bilt, MTD, and Yard Machines.

This flat washer is used to attach the idler pulley in a number of small and medium sized gasoline powered engines. These engines include snow blowers, log splitters, riding mowers, lawn tractors, and chippers. Because the idler pulley is subject to a great deal of resistance when the pulley is engaged, eventually the pulley will wear out. Should there be a squealing sound when engaging the drive, the problem is likely the idler pulley. In these cases, the pulley must be replaced. It is a good idea to replace the surrounding hardware when replacing the idler pulley; tNhis includes the flat washer, which is subject to corrosion during heavy use. To replace the idler pulley, first detach the spark plug cap. If on a mower or tractor, drop the mower deck. Remove the original pulley and install in order: replacement pulley, hex bolt, flat washer, flange nut. Apart from dropping the mower deck, the only tools required to complete this installation may be a 9/16 ratchet and combination wrench. This washer is a genuine OEM replacement part, designed to perfectly replicate the original piece. This washer is compatible with Troy-Bilt, Yard Man, Yard Machines, MTD, and Craftsman devices.

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.

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.

This is a genuine OEM clamp sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is used in various lawn and garden machines to connect hoses to fittings. It is used to connect piping to water pumps, exhaust pipes to exhaust manifolds, and other similar applications. This connection prevents fluids or air from leaking from the hose. Clamps may be spring or screw/band clamps. Spring clamps require no tools to install and remove; however, the size must be more accurate than when using screw/band clamps. Screw/band clamps are adjustable and can be tightened or loosened. Screw clamps should be inspected periodically to ensure tightness and that the clamps have not rusted.Hose clamps are installed approximately 1/4 inch below the end of the hose. If two clamps are used, there should be 1/4 inch between the two bands. When using a screw clamp, loosen the screw with a screwdriver just enough to fit the clamp over the hose. If using a spring clamp, squeeze the clamp and hold it open. Slide the clamp over the hose and then attach the hose and clamp to the fitting. Slide the clamp into place at the joint and tighten. Do not overtighten. This brass-colored clamp is a spring clamp made of metal; it is sold as an individual unit. This clamp is compatible with many different types of pipes made by various manufacturers.
