Description
Overview:
The Air Filter - Briggs & Stratton Part - BS494511S is a replacement intake filter for small petrol engines used on lawn mowers, ride‐ons, generators, scarifiers, tillers and pressure washers. Its job is to trap dust, grass and airborne debris before they reach the carburettor and cylinders, helping the engine start reliably and run smoothly under load. Built with durable filter media and a robust sealing edge, it seats securely in the air box to minimise bypass and withstand vibration and changing weather conditions. Suitable for a wide range of Briggs & Stratton engines used across domestic and professional garden equipment, it is straightforward to fit during routine servicing and supports consistent power delivery, reduced wear and better fuel efficiency over the working season.
Key Features:
- Sized to match the BS494511S housing for a correct, leak‐free seal
- Efficient particle capture to help protect pistons, rings and carburettor jets
- Durable construction resists tearing, moisture and collapse in typical mower use
- Quick installation with basic steps; designed for routine service replacement
- Helps maintain throttle response, power output and fuel economy in dusty conditions
- Supports regular maintenance schedules (check often; replace as per engine manual)
- Cost‐effective wear part that extends engine life and reduces long‐term repair costs
- Suitable for many Briggs & Stratton powered machines from leading mower brands
Typical Applications:

Used by homeowners, landscape contractors, groundskeepers, hire fleets and facilities teams to keep engines protected during frequent mowing, trimming and general grounds maintenance in gardens, parks, sports areas and commercial sites.
