Description
Overview:
This annular buffer is a genuine Stihl spare for the anti‐vibration system on selected Stihl chainsaws, including the MS 440 and MS 460. Made from a tough, fuel‐ and oil‐resistant elastomer, it sits between the powerhead and the handle system to isolate vibration, improving comfort and control while helping protect surrounding components from stress. It is designed for regular and heavy‐duty use where long run times and demanding cuts can accelerate wear on vibration mounts. As a Genuine Stihl part (MPN: 11287909909), it offers the correct fit and performance for the intended models, supporting smooth operation, consistent handling, and reliable service life. Suitable for forestry, landscaping, and construction tasks where reduced vibration is important to users and equipment alike.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured compatibility and correct fit
- Purpose‐built to minimise transmitted vibration for better handling and accuracy
- Durable elastomer construction, resistant to oils, fuel, and weathering
- Helps reduce operator fatigue and limits vibration‐related wear on other parts
- Restores anti‐vibration system performance on ageing or heavily used machines
- Direct replacement for the original buffer; no modification required
- Simple to fit with basic hand tools and standard workshop practices
- Reliable under professional duty cycles in forestry and construction environments
- Stable performance across temperature changes for consistent damping
- Supports smoother cutting and improved control on long jobs
Typical Applications:
Replacement of worn anti‐vibration mounts on work saws used for felling, bucking, snedding, and firewood processing, as well as site and construction tasks. Also suited to concrete and masonry cutting with compatible models, where prolonged operation makes vibration control important for comfort, precision, and the service life of the machine.
