The Wacker Neuson Stud M8 X 55 is a genuine OEM fastener designed for BTS series gasoline cut-off saws. As a factory-sourced component, is manufactured to the same specifications as the original hardware, ensuring correct thread engagement and secure clamping force throughout the assembly. This stud is confirmed to fit the BTS 13 Cut-off Saw with 1in Arbor and the BTS 11 Cut-off Saw with 7/8in Arbor, making it a direct, no-guesswork replacement when original hardware is damaged, stripped, or missing.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thread Accuracy — M8 x 55 dimensions are held to OEM tolerance, ensuring full thread engagement and proper clamp load at the fastened joint.
- Direct Hardware Replacement — Threads directly into the original tapped bore with no re-tapping or modification, restoring the fastened assembly to its original condition.
- Confirmed BTS Series Fitment — Verified for the BTS 13 Cut-off Saw with 1in Arbor and the BTS 11 Cut-off Saw with 7/8in Arbor.
- Structural Integrity Restored — A correctly installed stud maintains the clamping force needed to keep critical saw components seated and secure during high-vibration cutting operation.
- Blade Guard and Arbor Safety Compliance — Fastener integrity is directly tied to safe blade guard and arbor retention; using the correct OEM stud ensures the assembly meets original design intent for operator safety.
A stud is a headless threaded fastener that anchors two or more components together by threading into one part on one end and accepting a nut on the other. On a cut-off saw, studs are commonly used to secure blade guards, engine covers, and other structural assemblies that must remain firmly in place under continuous vibration and cutting loads. A worn, stripped, or missing stud compromises the clamping force of the entire joint, which can allow components to shift, loosen, or detach during operation — creating both performance and safety concerns. Replacing a damaged stud promptly with the correct OEM part restores the assembly to its original holding strength.
