Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl brake band is a safety‐critical replacement part for the chain brake system on Stihl MS 462 and MS 462 C‐M chainsaws. Made from durable spring steel, the band wraps around the clutch drum and applies friction to stop the chain quickly when the brake is activated. It is engineered to the correct profile and tension for reliable performance and a precise fit. Supplied to OEM specification under part number 1142 160 5400, it restores proper braking action on professional forestry, arborist, landscaping, and farm saws within the MS 462 family. Fitting a sound brake band helps ensure fast chain stopping, reduces risk during kickback events, and keeps the machine operating safely in demanding work.
