532190270 Rubber Mount Strap Fits Husqvarna Craftsman Poulan Mower (2) | Elastic Secure Hold; Firm Secure Lock

What It Is

The 532190270 Rubber Mount Strap is a replacement vibration-dampening strap designed to secure the engine to the mower deck on select Husqvarna, Craftsman, and Poulan walk-behind mowers. It uses an elastic loop for holding tension and a locking tab to keep the engine in place during operation.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify your mower’s model number (not just brand). This strap fits many Husqvarna, Craftsman (including 917 series), and Poulan models with a 2-strap engine mount system. Measure your existing strap: it should be roughly 8 inches long and 1 inch wide with a rubber loop and a plastic locking clip. Check that your deck has two mounting slots (one on each side of the engine). OEM part number 532190270 is the direct replacement. Aftermarket versions may vary slightly in rubber hardness—confirm the strap’s width matches your deck slots (typically 1 inch). Not for zero-turn or riding mowers.

Key Things to Know

• Installation difficulty: Easy—no tools required. Release the old strap by prying the locking tab out of the slot, then snap the new one in place.
• Durability: OEM rubber is UV and oil-resistant; aftermarket straps may crack faster. This genuine Craftsman part is a safe bet.
• Common gotcha: The strap must be fully seated in the locking slot. If it pops out during mowing, the engine can shift, causing belt misalignment or vibration.
• Quantity: Sold as a pack of 2—replace both straps at once for even tension.

Should You Buy It

If your mower vibrates excessively, the engine feels loose, or your current straps are cracked or stretched, this is a cheap, simple fix. It’s ideal for DIY owners with a compatible Husqvarna, Craftsman, or Poulan walk-behind mower who want a direct OEM replacement without guessing fitment. Skip it if your mower uses a different strap length or a single-strap mount.
