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.

A flange nut's unique wide flange design distributes the nut's pressure over the part it is securing. In return, it creates an even fastening surface, which reduces part damage and nut loosening. This one-piece all-metal fastener has a lock nut version that features a protruding circular flange. This drastically increases bearing surface, compatibility either for irregular or oversized holes, and surface tension reduction. Flange lock nuts are the preferred type of fastener for many lawnmower models because it can provide better fastening than regular screws, which are known to loosen under extreme vibration. However, it’s important to know that flange lock nuts are susceptible to wear and tear due to constant vibration exposure. It is essential to replace the broken flange lock nut immediately to prevent serious damage to the lawnmower.

This is a flanged lock nut. It’s designed to apply tension, typically on a joint that needs to have a certain amount of flex. As such, it’s mostly used on snowblower chutes and lawnmower handles. They can remain in place, but with a forgiving connection that can take a beating. The nut size is 3/8, with a thread size of 16. A lock nut will generally last for many years. However, the silicone ring inside will wear down if it’s frequently tightened and loosened. It needs to be replaced when it will no longer reliably remain in place. Generally, this begins as a symptom of slight slippage and worsens as time goes on. Thankfully, whether it’s being used on a snowblower or a lawnmower, this nut is generally straightforward to access. Simply unscrew the old nut, then screw the new nut on until it’s nice and tight.

A wing knob is an essential but often overlooked piece of equipment used on many gasoline-powered lawn tools. On snowblowers, this versatile connector is used to adjust the exit chute. The knob handle is easily gripped and made of durable plastic, so when wearing mittens or thick gloves, one can still grasp and turn the wing knob. On many lawn mowers, the wing knob is used to secure and adjust the handle to the mower or, with mowers that have folding handles, to lower and store the handle for ease of transporting the mower. While it does not seem that one would ever need to replace a wing knob, these fasteners may be lost when mowers are moved from one lawn to another or when the mowers are being stored until the next growing season. On rare occasions, the threads in a wing knob can be stripped if they are not turned tightly enough when first fastened after unbending mower handles. These devices are inexpensive and virtually universal, so it is wise to keep an extra wing knob on hand in case one becomes lost. The wing knobs fit Yard-Man, Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, Bolens, and Yard Machine mowers and snowblowers. Made of durable plastic, these OEM knobs are genuine manufactured replacement parts that perfectly match the originals.

This is a shoulder screw that is used to secure the handles of yard equipment. Typically, this screw is used with a matching wing nut, which is sold separately. Many different varieties of push lawn mowers have handles that fold downward for ease of storage. This is one of the locations on a mower where one will find shoulder bolts and the point at which these bolts are most likely wear out. While they are made of durable machined metal, shoulder bolts receive a great deal of wear, particularly from the handles being raised and lowered each time the mower is used. When pushing down on the mower to clear wet grass clippings or to make sharp turns with the mower, the entire weight of the mower is put on the two shoulder screws where they intersect. Since the metal of the handles can turn at that juncture, extra shearing action is put on the shoulder bolts, which can wear out. It is actually advantageous that the bolts wear out since otherwise, the handles themselves would warp and break apart. These OEM genuine replacement parts fit a number of different lawn and garden machines, including many made by Cub Cadets, Husky, Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, Yard-Man, Bolens, MTD, and Yard-Machines.
