Stens Fuel Cap, Snapper 7012515, ea, 1

What It Is

This is a replacement fuel cap for Snapper lawn mowers, designed to seal the fuel tank and prevent leaks or debris ingress. It fits select Snapper walk-behind mowers and zero-turn riders that use part number 7012515.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower’s model number (found on the engine or frame tag). This cap fits Snapper models like the SPX, LT, and ZTR series that originally used OEM part 7012515. It does not fit all Snapper mowers—check your owner’s manual or existing cap for the stamped part number. The cap is a standard twist-on design with a 2-inch diameter, but measure your tank opening to ensure a snug seal. Aftermarket caps vary in venting; this Stens cap is a direct OEM replacement, not a universal fit.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Made by Stens, a reliable aftermarket brand, with a 4.4/5 rating from 206 reviews. Users report good sealing and durability.
• Installation: Easy—just unscrew the old cap and twist on the new one. No tools needed.
• Common gotcha: Some older Snapper tanks may have a slightly different thread pitch; if the cap feels loose or cross-threads, double-check compatibility with your specific model.
• Venting: This cap includes a vent to prevent vacuum lock in the tank, which can cause fuel starvation. Ensure your mower’s fuel system requires a vented cap (most do).

Should You Buy It

If your Snapper mower uses part 7012515 and you need a direct, leak-free replacement, this cap is a solid choice. It’s affordable, easy to install, and backed by positive reviews. Skip it if you have a different brand or an older model with an incompatible thread pattern.
