Additional Information

The Briggs & Stratton shear bolt kit (part number 1501216MA) includes two shear bolts, two spacers, and two nuts for repairing select Craftsman, Murray, Snapper, and Western Tool snowblowers. These 1/4-20 x 1-3/4 shear bolts are designed to break under stress, protecting the auger and engine from damage if the auger hits a solid object.

If your snowblower s auger stops turning or fails to throw snow effectively, a broken or missing shear bolt may be the cause. Replacing shear bolts when needed helps prevent more serious damage and keeps your snowblower running safely and efficiently.

Installation is simple with a standard wrench. Be sure to match the bolt size with your model s specifications and inspect the bolts regularly for wear. For a wide range of snowblower replacement parts, visit Sears PartsDirect to keep your equipment ready for winter use.
