Description
Overview:
This is the genuine Stihl adjusting wheel for chain tension systems on a wide range of Stihl chainsaws, including the MS 180 and MS 230. It is a small, hard‐wearing polymer wheel with a metal insert that interfaces with the chain tensioner mechanism to deliver precise, repeatable adjustment. Keeping the chain correctly tensioned helps maintain cutting performance, reduces bar and sprocket wear, and improves safety by limiting derailment risk. As a direct replacement for OEM part number 1123 648 2202, it restores smooth operation where the original wheel has worn, become rounded, or been lost. Suitable for both professional and domestic users, it supports routine servicing and reliable day‐to‐day use across petrol, cordless, and electric Stihl models that use this tensioning design.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM component for assured compatibility and fit
- Accurate, incremental chain tension adjustment to maintain correct chain alignment
- Robust, impact‐resistant polymer construction with a durable metal insert
- Positive grip profile for easy turning, even with gloved hands
- Helps extend bar, sprocket, and chain life by keeping tension consistent
- Direct replacement with no modifications required
- Resistant to oils and typical workshop contaminants
- Suitable for both professional and DIY maintenance routines
Typical Applications:
Used during chain fitting and routine chain re‐tensioning on Stihl chainsaws. Ideal when refurbishing the side cover tensioner assembly, replacing a stripped or worn adjuster, or restoring smooth adjustment after heavy or prolonged use. Common in forestry, landscaping, grounds maintenance, arborist work, and domestic firewood cutting.
Also known as:
Tension wheel, chain adjuster wheel, chain tension knob, adjuster dial, chain tensioner wheel, chain adjustment wheel.
