Description
Overview:
This cam wheel is a genuine Stihl spare designed for the BR 500 and BR 500-Z backpack blowers. It is a precision-moulded component, typically made from a tough, oil- and fuel-resistant engineering polymer with a light, neutral colour. The cam profile coordinates movement within the blower's mechanism to keep operation smooth and consistent under load. Replacing a worn or damaged cam wheel helps restore reliable performance, reduces unnecessary wear on surrounding parts, and supports long service intervals. Built to the original equipment specification (OEM No. 4282 030 1802), it fits directly without modification, making it suitable for both professional users and DIY maintenance on Stihl backpack blowers used for grounds care, landscaping, and site clean-up.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl part for assured fit, function, and compatibility with BR 500 series blowers
- OEM No. 4282 030 1802 for accurate identification and ordering
- Precision-moulded polymer for dimensional stability and low wear
- Resistant to fuel, oil, vibration, and temperature changes common in outdoor use
- Restores correct actuation within the blower mechanism to maintain consistent running
- Direct-fit design; no modification needed when replacing a like-for-like part
- Helps extend service life by preventing knock-on damage from a worn cam profile
- Suitable for routine servicing or corrective repair to minimise downtime
- Supports smooth, efficient blower output across frequent start-stop cycles
- Backed by Stihl manufacturing standards for reliability in demanding environments
Typical Applications:
Used during scheduled maintenance or repairs on Stihl backpack blowers to replace a worn or damaged cam wheel. Common in landscaping, estate and grounds maintenance, local authority work, and construction site clean-up where dependable blower performance is required. Ideal for fleet servicing to keep machines consistent across the season.
