Description
Overview:
The Brake Band for Stihl chainsaws is a genuine Stihl part made from durable steel. It forms the core of the chain brake system, tightening around the clutch drum to stop the chain rapidly when the brake is engaged. This ensures safer operation and helps protect the user if kickback occurs or when stopping the saw between cuts. Designed for Stihl MS171 and MS211 series machines, it restores reliable braking performance when the original band becomes worn, stretched, or damaged. The precise fit and correct spring tension make it suitable for regular maintenance on compatible models. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 1139 160 5400.
