This replacement shear bolt is supplied directly from the original equipment manufacturer for use with Craftsman snowblowers. The purpose of this hardware is to protect your snowblower. If the auger gets jammed or clogged, the shear bolt is designed to snap at a certain point of pressure, that way it will not damage any other part of the unit. Please note this high-quality component is made of durable metal and is sold individually.
