Massey Ferguson 710-1017 Spare Part - Tap Screw:1/4-14:.625:trustrxi

Genuine MTD 710-1017 — Screw (AB tap). Replace a stripped or missing fastener with the original MTD tapping screw made for lawn and garden equipment. This is the factory MTD part listed as 1/4-14 x 5/8" (see metric below) and sold as the Screw, AB Tap (item 710-1017).


Key details:

- Type: self‑tapping (AB tap) screw with Torx-style head for secure drive engagement.

- Imperial size (manufacturer spec): 1/4-14 x 0.625".

- Metric equivalents (approx.): diameter 6.35 mm, thread pitch ≈ 1.814 mm (14 TPI), length ≈ 15.9 mm. (Conversion from the MTD specification above.)

- Replaces earlier number 710-1217 / common factory cross-references.


Fits (example models — confirm by matching your machine’s parts diagram or model number): commonly used on many MTD, Cub Cadet and related riding and walk‑behind machines such as Cub Cadet RZT‑42, RZT‑50, LTX‑1046 series, SC300/SC500 series units, RT65 and similar models listed under those product families.


Why choose this part: it’s the original MTD screw specified for those assemblies, sized and shaped for correct fit and secure fastening where a self‑tapping fastener is required. If your repair calls for the 1/4‑14 x 0.625" tapping screw with a Torx drive, 710‑1017 is the genuine MTD part to restore proper function.


(Use the model number on your product’s ID label to confirm exact fit; MTD’s parts diagrams list 710‑1017 for the screw shown in many assembly drawings.)
