Description
Overview:
This Chain Catcher is a Genuine Stihl spare for professional petrol chainsaws, designed to arrest a derailed or broken chain and reduce the risk of injury or damage to the saw. Built from durable metal with a hard-wearing finish, it sits beneath the chain path and provides a physical stop if the chain leaves the guide bar. It is suitable for demanding use on heavy-duty models such as the Stihl MS650 and MS440, helping keep the saw within safety specifications. Replacing a worn or missing catcher is a simple, low-cost way to maintain safe, reliable operation. OEM Part No. 1122 656 7700 ensures correct fit and alignment on compatible Stihl crankcases without modification.
