Rubber Washers for Engine Clamp Knobs
Why Are Rubber Washers Important?
The rubber washers on your engine clamp knobs serve an essential purpose:
They absorb vibrations from the blower unit
They help ensure the knobs stay tightly screwed down during operation
They prevent the knobs from loosening and potentially getting lost
Replacement Options
While we don't sell the rubber washers separately:
The Everbilt 3/8 in. x 21/32 in. Rubber Flat Washers from Home Depot are fully compatible
These can be found in most hardware stores or online retailers
Look for 3/8" inner diameter rubber washers if you can't find the exact Everbilt brand
Top Brace and Roof Rack Clamp Knob Specifications
If you need to replace the knobs for your Roof Rack or Top Brace:
Both use 1/4"-20 thread size knobs
These are standard sizes available at most hardware stores
Be sure to install all washers properly to keep your equipment running smoothly and safely.
