Stens 210-110 Deck Wheel, Replaces AYP 532174873,Black

What It Is

The Stens 210-110 Deck Wheel is a replacement gauge wheel for riding lawn mower decks, designed to support the deck’s outer edge and prevent scalping on uneven terrain. It’s a direct aftermarket alternative for Craftsman, Husqvarna, and AYP (American Yard Products) mowers using the OEM part number 532174873.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower’s deck size (typically 42–54 inches) and model series. This wheel replaces AYP 532174873 and fits many Craftsman (e.g., 917 series), Husqvarna (e.g., YTH, GTH), and Poulan Pro models from the 1990s onward. Measure the wheel’s outside diameter (approx. 11 inches) and the axle hole diameter (must be 3/8 inch). Also check the bushing length—if your deck uses a spacer or offset bracket, this wheel may need adjustment. Confirm your deck has a vertical mounting slot for the bolt; this wheel uses a single central bolt, not a bracket or pin.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs. OEM: Stens is a reputable aftermarket brand, but some users report the tire tread is slightly softer than genuine AYP parts, which can wear faster on concrete or gravel.
• Installation difficulty: Easy—remove the old wheel bolt, slide this one on, and tighten. No special tools required. Check that the bushing rotates freely; if not, lightly grease the axle.
• Common gotcha: The wheel may rub against the deck if your mower uses a thick bracket. Measure the wheel’s hub thickness (about 1 inch) and compare to your deck’s clearance. A washer or spacer may be needed.
• Durability: The plastic hub is durable, but the tire is solid rubber—no air to leak. It holds up well on turf but can crack if run over sharp debris.

Should You Buy It

If you need a budget-friendly replacement for a worn AYP-style deck wheel on a Craftsman or Husqvarna rider, this Stens wheel works fine for most homeowners. Skip it if you have a commercial mower or need exact OEM fitment without potential clearance issues.
