1181596 (17-114 Screw)

Genuine Penn Screw (part #1181596) — a partially threaded slotted fillister-head bridge screw (#10-32 X .921 LG) that secures the bridge assembly while the unthreaded shaft portion acts as a bearing surface for the #18 clutch spring. Using a fully threaded substitute will damage the spring. A missing or worn bridge screw allows structural play, causing gear misalignment and rough operation. Cross-references with Penn part number 17-114. OEM replacement ensures perfect fit and factory performance.
