The Honda 90231-KCS-651 Lock Nut (16MM) is a genuine OEM fastener designed for Honda H3011 riding mowers, H4013, H5013, H5518, and RT5000 multi-purpose and lawn tractors. As a direct Honda OEM component, this lock nut is manufactured to the exact specifications required for these machines, ensuring a proper, secure fit with no guesswork. Honda supersedes fasteners at serial breaks, so confirm your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine Honda OEM Fastener — sourced directly from Honda, this lock nut meets the exact dimensional and holding specifications Honda engineers specified for these tractors and mowers.
- 16MM Locking Design — the locking feature resists loosening under vibration and load, maintaining joint integrity during operation across varied terrain.
- Broad Tractor and Mower Fitment — listed for Honda H3011, H4013, H5013, H5518, and RT5000 machines; verify your serial number against the compatibility table to confirm the correct application for your unit.
A lock nut differs from a standard hex nut in that it incorporates a mechanism — typically a distorted thread or nylon insert — that resists self-loosening caused by vibration and dynamic loads during machine operation. On riding mowers and multi-purpose tractors like these Honda models, fasteners are subjected to constant vibration from the engine and drivetrain, as well as the shock loads of uneven terrain. When a lock nut backs off or fails, the joint it secures can shift or separate, affecting the reliability of the assembly it holds. Replacing a worn or missing lock nut with the correct Honda OEM part number 90231-KCS-651 restores the holding force the connection was designed to carry.
