Rear Cover Nut Alum

The King Racing Products Rear Cover Nut Aluminum (Part Number 2220) is a precision-engineered replacement fastener designed for quick-change gear cover systems on marine equipment. This 3/8-16 threaded aluminum nut features black anodized finishing, providing corrosion resistance essential for saltwater and freshwater boating environments. At just 0.02 lbs, it's a lightweight component that plays a critical role in securing quick-detach gear covers on racing and performance marine powerheads.

The 3/8-16 thread specification ensures compatibility with King Racing Products' quick-change gear cover systems. Aluminum construction keeps weight minimal without sacrificing strength, while the black anodized finish resists oxidation and discoloration from constant water exposure. The tight tolerance on this fastener means secure engagement without wobble or vibration, critical when operating at high RPM or in rough water conditions. Replacement nuts are essential for maintenance—corrosion, cross-threading, or damage during cover removal can compromise the integrity of your gear cover assembly.

This fastener is ideal for serious offshore anglers, racing boat operators, and weekend boaters who rely on quick-change covers for gear maintenance and performance tuning. Anyone running King Racing Products powerhead packages will eventually need replacement fasteners due to normal wear. Keeping spare rear cover nuts on hand eliminates downtime when covers need service or adjustment. The compact 1.8 x 0.65 x 2.8-inch profile makes it easy to store multiples in a tackle box or engine compartment.
