Part Information

Helpful DIY instructions: Installation guide with video.

Special details: Snowblower shear pin 738-04124A doesn't include the cotter pin; order cotter pin part number 738-04040 separately.

This shear pin (part number 738-04124A) is for snowblowers.

Shear pin 738-04124A connects the auger to the rotating drive shaft. The shear pin is made of soft metal that purposely shears off or breaks to protect the transmission and motor if a foreign object or hard-packed snow binds the auger.

Follow the instructions in the owner's manual when installing this part.

works

What's to say? It's a shear pin, a deliberate weak point designed to fail before more severe damage can occur. I do wish the securing clip was included, but a cotter pin works just fine.

Shear pin review

Shear pins are fine. Add snow and ice makes it a bit more challenging.

Get it right next time.

This is not made of brass. They got the shape and size right, that's why I gave them 2 stars and not 1.

Easy to install

Replacing the shear pins was easy but I needed to purchase the clips that hold the pins in place from the local hardware store.
