Weedeater String Trimmer Fastener

This flanged hex nut is used in various models of lawn and garden equipment. The nut is considered a standard hardware part that may have multiple applications on different units. It is typically used along with a bolt or screw to provide a secure hold for various components. This nut is a small part and can become lost in the process of other repairs. It can also break or strip the threads due to regular wear and tear, impact damage, or another issue. If this nut is broken or missing, it needs to be replaced immediately. Replacing the hex nut with a genuine OEM part will ensure equipment is always in proper working order. This OEM hex nut is designed for use in select Craftsman and Husqvarna equipment. It is manufactured by Husqvarna as an exact replacement for the original nuts that came with the machine. This part can fit on more than 150 machines, including lawn mowers, tractors, snow blowers, and trimmers from both brands. Owners will want to check their parts diagram for the exact location(s) and application(s) of this nut. Since it is standard hardware, some people purchase multiple quantities to keep extra parts on hand in case of emergency.

This genuine Husqvarna bolt and washer replacement part is specifically engineered to hold and secure the lawnmower blade in place. The bolt is threaded while the washer has a curved or rounded headed. A washer is needed for even load distribution of the threaded bolt. Fastening the bolt without the fastener may cause stress to the material it's driven into. One of the warning signs that the bolt and washer are broken is if the lawnmower blade doesn't rotate properly. Instead of moving in one circular motion, it turns erratically and goes up and down. In some cases, it will make a loud grinding noise during cutting. The lawnmower blade may even fly out from its normal position. Replacing the worn-down bolt and washer is fast and straightforward. First, shut down the engine and let it cool. Then, take out the spark plug and turn the mower on its side. Use a socket to remove the old bolt and washer. Then, grab the replacement and insert it through the blade's hole. Tighten it using the socket. This original Husqvarna bolt and washer is only suitable for lawnmowers made by Husqvarna, Craftsman, and Weed Eater. It is also compatible with some Dixon and Poulan lawnmowers. This bolt and washer replacement is sold individually.
