This authentic replacement part is designed for use with Craftsman snowblowers. Ball bearings are used to reduce friction between rotating parts. The balls or rollers take the load and spin, distributing the weight evenly while the minimal contact area of the ball reduces friction. This bearing helps to secure the arbor shaft, allowing it to rotate. Bearings experience constant wear from pressure, heat, vibration, and friction eventually requiring replacements. This high-quality component is made of durable metal and is sold individually. A wrench set will be needed to perform this repair.
