Murray 1918249sm Truss Head Slotted Screw

Product Description

The MURRAY 1918249sm is a truss head slotted screw designed as a direct OEM replacement fastener for Murray lawn and garden equipment. Truss head screws feature a wide, low-profile dome head that distributes clamping load across a broader surface area compared to standard pan or round head fasteners. The slotted drive accommodates a flat-blade screwdriver, which is standard for field service and on-equipment repairs. This fastener is sourced from the Murray parts program and is intended to restore original factory assembly specifications during routine maintenance or component replacement.

This screw is used in Murray lawn and garden equipment, including walk-behind mowers, riding mowers, and related outdoor power equipment. It is typically installed during deck, housing, or accessory panel assembly where a low-profile head profile is required. Service technicians and equipment repair shops handling Murray units will encounter this fastener during disassembly and reassembly of exterior and structural components.

Key Features

• Truss head profile provides wide bearing surface for secure fastening on thin or soft materials
• Slotted drive compatible with standard flat-blade screwdrivers
• OEM Murray replacement part — matches original factory fastener specification
• Intended for lawn and garden equipment assembly and repair applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fastener for Murray lawn and garden equipment where part number 1918249sm is specified in the original parts documentation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified small engine or outdoor power equipment technician. Disconnect the spark plug wire and ensure the equipment is fully powered down before beginning any fastener replacement. Use a properly sized flat-blade screwdriver to avoid stripping the slotted drive. Do not overtighten, as truss head fasteners are designed for controlled clamping loads appropriate to the mating material.
