The jam nut can be used in different locations within various types of lawn and garden machines. It is often used as a type of locknut that is jammed against a standard nut. This will help to lock both of the nuts in place. The jam nut is also considered a low profile nut, as they are usually half as tall as a regular nut. Owners may find that they eventually need to replace the jam nuts that came with their equipment. The replacement might be needed because one of the nuts is no longer holding tightly, or because it has been worn down or corroded. Additionally, the owner may have lost a nut when working on other parts of the machine. Replacement is fast and simple. Many buyers choose to get several of the nuts at once to have some on hand when needed. The genuine OEM jam nut is identical to those that came with the machine. It is sold individually and works for equipment such as lawn mowers, lawn tractors, tillers, and log splitters. Compatible brands include Craftsman, Toro, Cub Cadet, Ryobi, Troy-Bilt, Murray, Yard Machines, MTD, Huskee, Montgomery Wards, Bolens, Yard-Man, and MasterCut.

This authentic OEM replacement ball joint assembly is a part of the front suspension of a lawn tractor or riding mower. Suspensions are complex systems that include joints, bushings, and bearings that must all work together to turn and maintain contact with the ground. This ball joint assembly helps to connect all of these components. It works similarly to a human hip in that it has a joint and a ball that allows for pivot motions. The most common reason for a ball joint assembly to go bad is if it loses lubrication or becomes gritty. In order to work smoothly, these joints must stay well oiled or else they will grind and break. If the ball assembly breaks, use a wrench to disengage the wheel and change out the part. This is a fairly straightforward repair and should not take more than a few minutes. This replacement assembly is a high-quality part for Cub Cadet, Huskee, MTD, Yard Machines, Murray, Troy-Bilt, Bolens, Ryobi, and Yard Man machines. This part is sourced from the original parts manufacturer and ships individually.

The exhaust systems on lawn and garden equipment are just as important as those on a vehicle. They need a good seal to prevent a leak between the carburetor and the exhaust tube, which would allow air leakage that could cause performance issues and loud noise. Over time all exhaust gaskets deteriorate and require a full replacement. It is relatively easy to replace an exhaust gasket and requires only the use of screw drivers, a socket set or a wrench set depending on the device being service. Replacement components such as sockets or screws may also be required during this repair. The gasket surfaces should be cleaned and fully dried before being installed between the carburetor and the exhaust tube. This exhaust gasket works with Toro, Simplicity, Murray and Briggs & Stratton lawnmowers, generators, snowblowers, wood chippers, and lawn tractors. It also works with equipment made by Craftsman, Husqvarna, Cub Cadet, Poulan, Wheel Horse, MTD, Ariens, and more.

There are multiple uses for the 5/16-18 Hex Screw. It is often used with small gasoline-powered yard equipment such as lawn and garden machines. While hex screws such as these may be used in edgers and snowblowers, the most frequent use this screw is in yard tractors. This variety of screw is commonly used in attaching the various appendages of gas-powered equipment to a central operating platform. In particular, these hex screws are used to secure the engine block of power tools to the frame or housing of the equipment. Once in place, these fasteners have an almost unbreakable strength to them. This is so much so the case that often, in order to detach the engine manifold and repair the inner workings of an engine, the bolts must be chiseled or cut loose. In such cases, it is necessary for the bolts to be replaced during reassembly. Manufacturers insist that genuine OEM replacement parts be used in the rebuilding process. These replacement parts were manufactured to the same exacting specifications used to make the original screws. These OEM screws are compatible with equipment made and sold by Yard-Man, Cub Cadet, Troy-Bilt, Husky, MTD, Bolens, and Yard Machines.

Carriage bolts are flat-tipped with round heads, and their function in small engine appliances is to fasten together components and to secure that connection with a nut. There are various reasons that a carriage bolt might have to be removed and replaced, among them misplacement of the small, easily lost part. Other reasons to replace a carriage bolt could include damage or erosion that prevents the bolt from attaching the materials to one another effectively. If a carriage bolt is subject to this kind of damage, it should be replaced before using the small engine appliance.

This is a versatile screw designed with flanged hex head and double-lead threads. It is a high-low self-tapping screw with one thread that is high and the other low for easier penetration.
