Snow Blower Flangelock Hex Nut 532426589

This flange lock nut is supplied by the original equipment manufacturer for use in lawn and garden equipment. The nut has a diameter of 5/16 of an inch and 18 threads per inch. It has a serrated 1-inch-by-1-inch flange on one end which provides additional grip and stability. The nut is used in conjunction with other fasteners such as bolts/screws. Over time the nut can corrode, wear down, or break causing excessive noise, instability, and potential damage to the equipment parts. Simply remove the faulty nut using a socket or wrench and thread the new one on with your hands before securing it with the tool. Each nut is sold individually.
