Description
Overview:
This Bumper Spike is a Genuine Stihl OEM part for the MS 462 and MS 462 C chainsaws. It is a heavy-duty metal spike that mounts to the saw body to bite into the wood and give you a stable pivot point while cutting. By anchoring the saw at the cut, it improves control, reduces kickback risk when used correctly, and helps guide straighter, more confident cuts. The robust construction is designed for daily forestry and arborist use, delivering a secure hold on logs and standing timber. Engineered to Stihl specifications, it offers reliable compatibility and fit on listed models, helping your saw track cleanly through felling, snedding, and bucking work with less effort and better accuracy.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for OEM fit and reliable performance on compatible models
- Strong metal construction designed to withstand heavy-duty cutting tasks
- Provides a stable fulcrum to control the bar and chain through the cut
- Enhances accuracy for felling, de-branching, and cross-cutting
- Helps reduce user fatigue by letting the saw bite and pivot in the wood
- Simple to install with standard hand tools, minimising downtime
- Precise tooth profile for positive grip on bark and timber fibres
- Compatible with professional setups commonly used in forestry and arboriculture
- Built to last under vibration, shock, and outdoor conditions
Typical Applications:
Used for controlled felling cuts, boring cuts (by trained users), snedding branches, and bucking logs on site or at the yard. Ideal where a firm anchor point improves safety and cut accuracy, such as managing hinge wood in felling or keeping the bar aligned during repetitive cross-cuts. Suitable for professional forestry, tree surgery, firewood processing, and estate maintenance.
Also known as:
