This is a genuine OEM sourced replacement shear pin designed for use with snow blowers/throwers. Shear pins are installed in order to protect your snowblower and it measures 1/4 X 1.750. If the auger gets jammed or clogged, shear bolt is designed to snap at a certain point of pressure, so it will not damage any other part of the unit. This pin is made out of metal and it is sold individually. Please note the cotter pin used to secure this pin is sold separately. In order to install or remove this pin you will need pliers.
