Nut, 7/16-20 Hex Center Lock 703348

This hex center lock nut secures various components of your lawn equipment in place. With a 7/16-inch diameter and 20 threads per inch, it has a hexagonal shape and a locking mechanism that prevents loosening caused by vibrations. It can typically be found on wheel axles or the chain case assembly, depending on the model. A broken lock nut may easily come undone and have stripped or fractured threads. Your machine may also excessively vibrate and make noise. Failing to replace a damaged nut can lead to component detachment during operation, posing safety risks to you and others nearby. To replace a nut, consult your user manual to locate it and access it by removing necessary covers and components. Use a socket or wrench to loosen and remove it. Keep in mind that this OEM replacement part is sold individually, so ensure you purchase the correct quantity required for your machine.
