Description
Overview:
This Bearing C/Case is a genuine Stihl crankcase bearing designed for the MS 311 and MS 391 chainsaws. It supports the crankshaft within the crankcase, reducing friction and ensuring smooth, concentric rotation under high engine speeds. Manufactured from high‐grade steel with precision‐ground races, it is built to handle heat, vibration, and the oil/fuel environment typical of two‐stroke engines. By maintaining correct crankshaft alignment, it helps preserve cutting performance and reliability in demanding work. Identified by OEM number 9523 003 4304, this bearing offers an accurate fit and dependable service life for users who need their saws to perform day in, day out, whether on site or in the garden.
