Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl brake band (part number 1135 160 5450) is a precision steel component for Stihl professional petrol chainsaws, including the MS 361 and MS 362 series. The band wraps around the clutch drum to arrest rotation when the front hand guard is activated, bringing the chain to a rapid stop for safe operation. Manufactured from robust, wear-resistant steel, it withstands heat and friction in demanding cutting work. Designed specifically for Stihl housings and mechanisms, it restores positive braking action and helps maintain the built-in safety performance of your saw. Suitable for trade, arborist, and DIY users who need dependable stopping power and a correct, factory-spec fit on compatible Stihl models.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM part for exact fit and reliable performance
- Compatible with selected MS 361 and MS 362 variants for straightforward replacement
- Strong steel band resists wear, glazing, and heat from the clutch drum
- Provides consistent, rapid stopping to support operator safety
- Smooth, predictable engagement and release for confident control
- Like-for-like swap with original hardware to minimise downtime
- Helps restore braking efficiency on saws with a worn or stretched band
- Built for frequent use in forestry, landscaping, and site work
Typical Applications:
Replacement for a worn, cracked, or heat-glazed brake band on compatible Stihl chainsaws used for felling, snedding, logging, firewood processing, storm clearance, or general site work. Ideal after clutch or drum service, or when braking performance has reduced. Maintains safe operation where immediate chain stoppage is required during cutting, limbing, and maintenance tasks.
