The Honda 90137-SH3-000 Tapping Screw (4X16) is a genuine OEM fastener designed for GCV160 vertical shaft engines. Sourced directly from Honda, this screw matches the original specification used on the production line, ensuring a correct, consistent fit without guesswork. If you're servicing a GCV160 engine and need to replace a worn or missing tapping screw, verifying part number 90137-SH3-000 against your engine's serial number in the fitment table is the best way to confirm this is the right fastener for your application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Honda Fastener — sourced directly from Honda, so the thread form, head size.
- Correct Size for the Application — the 4X16 designation identifies both the thread size and length, ensuring the screw engages the correct depth in the host material
- GCV160 Fitment — listed for GCV160 vertical shaft engines; check your engine's serial number against the fitment table to confirm this is the correct screw for your specific build
A tapping screw is a self-threading fastener that cuts its own thread as it is driven into a pre-formed or pilot hole in plastic, sheet metal, or die-cast material. Unlike a standard machine screw, it does not require a pre-tapped nut or threaded insert, which makes it a common choice on engine covers and housings where a lightweight, secure attachment is needed. Using a screw with the wrong thread pitch, diameter, or length risks stripping the host material or leaving the component it secures inadequately fastened, so matching the correct part number matters even on what looks like a simple hardware item.
