Description
Overview:
The Chain Catcher for Stihl chainsaws is a small but critical safety component designed to stop a thrown or derailed chain from whipping back towards the operator. This Genuine Stihl part (MPN 1123 656 7700) is made from a durable metal alloy to withstand impact and repeated use in demanding cutting conditions. Fitted to the saw body beside the guide bar, it provides a physical stop that limits chain travel if the chain breaks or jumps the bar. It is suitable for a wide range of light to mid-range Stihl models, including the MS 170 and MS 250, helping keep your saw compliant with standard safety practice and in reliable working order.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM part for accurate fit and dependable performance
- Robust metal alloy construction for long service life
- Helps prevent chain whip in the event of derailment or breakage
- Supports safer operation by containing the chain path
- Simple, bolt-on replacement using existing fixings
- Engineered for the correct height and profile to match the specified models
- Resistant to normal oils, fuel splashes, and outdoor conditions
- Suitable for regular maintenance schedules and preventative replacements
Typical Applications:
Used on petrol chainsaws to reduce risk if the saw chain derails during cutting, limbing, or cross-cutting. Ideal for routine maintenance, insurance compliance, and restoring safety on machines that have a worn, bent, or missing catcher. Suits trade users, arborists, landscapers, and homeowners who need a reliable safety stop on everyday saws.
