Description
Overview:
This Chain Brake Band is a genuine Husqvarna OEM safety component (MPN 530071893 / 530 07 18 93) used in the chain brake assembly of selected lightweight and mid-size domestic and trade chainsaws, including Husqvarna 3616 and 3816. The band is formed from durable, wear-resistant steel to provide a firm, consistent clamping action on the clutch drum. Its job is to stop the chain rapidly when the front brake lever is engaged, especially during kickback, helping to reduce injury risk and damage. Designed to meet factory specifications, it restores proper braking performance when the original band has worn, stretched, cracked, or lost tension. It is intended for the compatible models listed below to ensure correct fit and reliable operation.
Key Features:
- Genuine Husqvarna OEM part for assured fit, function, and compatibility (MPN 530071893 / 530 07 18 93).
- Robust steel construction resists heat, glazing, and wear for dependable service life.
- Rapid chain-stopping action helps control kickback and improves operational safety.
- Correct profile and end hooks to seat accurately within the existing brake mechanism.
- Stable tension and smooth band surface for consistent, repeatable braking performance.
- Suitable replacement when braking force is reduced, band is worn, or the brake drags.
- Straightforward to fit for competent users with basic hand tools; no special modifications required.
- Engineered to work with the OEM brake cover, linkage, and clutch drum on listed models.
Typical Applications:
Routine maintenance and safety restoration on domestic and professional chainsaws where the chain brake is slow to engage, fails to hold, or shows signs of damage after heavy use, heat build-up, or contamination by oil and debris. Ideal after impact events or kickback incidents to return the chain brake to reliable, within-spec performance.
