Product Description

The HOMELITE 678074002 is a 1/4-20 lock nut designed as a fastener replacement for Homelite outdoor power equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation of this lock nut is typically performed by a small-engine technician or qualified service professional during equipment disassembly and reassembly.
