Description
Overview:
This bushing is a genuine Stihl replacement part for supporting a rotating shaft within the drive line of selected brushcutters. Built to OEM specifications, it keeps moving parts aligned and running smoothly by reducing friction and wear between mating components. Suitable for Stihl FS55 and FS55C machines, it helps maintain consistent performance, protects surrounding parts from premature wear, and restores a precise fit where the original bush has worn. Supplied under OEM No. 4140 160 5201 (MPN: 41401605201, 4140-160-5201), it is manufactured from durable, OEM-grade material for long service life. Use this component as a straightforward, like-for-like replacement during routine servicing or when you notice increased play, noise, or vibration from the drive assembly.
