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 replacement part is a hex bolt. It is a genuine replacement part made by MTD. Hex bolts are named because they are shaped like a hexagon and are different from the regular circle-shaped bolts. These parts are able to hold other parts secure and in place so that everything can operate as needed. A new hex bolt might be needed if the current ones are damaged in any way. It is possible that these bolts become stripped or lodged in place over time due to normal wear and tear and should be replaced. The repair should be fairly easy, only requiring a screwdriver or pliers if the previous part is stuck. Be sure the engine is completely powered down before beginning this repair. This bolt is sold individually. Be sure to purchase the correct amount as many appliances require more than one. This is a genuine OEM replacement part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

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. Our flanged lock nuts are genuine OEM MTD nuts, and they are sold individually.

A lawnmower’s fuel line or a fuel hose brings the fuel from the tank to the carburetor. It is made of durable translucent plastic material. When pushing the primer bulb, the gas from the tank will travel through the fuel line and to the carburetor. Once there is enough fuel, any excess will go to the return line and into the tank. Fuel lines are made from sturdy rubber or plastic. Over time the fuel line can crack and begin to leak. There are few symptoms of a broken fuel hose. One of the easiest ways to tell is if the hose has visible exterior cracks. Other warning signs include fuel smell and fuel leaks. Installing a new fuel line is easy and doesn't require any tools.

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.
