Murray 704005 Push Nut Cap 1/4 Inch

Product Description

The MURRAY 704005 is a 1/4-inch push nut cap designed as a fastening retention component for outdoor power equipment. Push nut caps — also called speed nuts or push-on fasteners — seat onto a shaft or stud and lock in place without threads, providing a secure, low-profile hold. This cap style adds a finished cover to the fastener, protecting the shaft end and preventing snagging or injury. Lawn and garden equipment technicians install this type of hardware during blade, deck, and drivetrain service on Murray-branded walk-behind and riding mowers.

This push nut cap is sized for 1/4-inch shafts and is a direct Murray OEM part, making it the correct replacement for worn, damaged, or lost original fasteners. It is used in residential lawn and garden applications where quick, tool-assisted fastener retention is needed. Typical installation scenarios include deck reassembly, wheel retention, and linkage attachment points on Murray mowers and related outdoor power equipment.

• Cap style covers and protects the shaft end after installation

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by small engine technicians or experienced equipment operators during routine maintenance or repair. Power down the equipment completely and remove the ignition key before servicing any fastener or moving component. Push nut caps are typically seated using a flat punch and mallet or a socket of appropriate diameter to drive the fastener evenly onto the shaft. Once installed, push nut caps are designed for single use and should be replaced rather than reused after removal.
