Description
Overview:
This Chain Guide Plate is a hard‐wearing steel plate that supports correct chain tracking on Husqvarna petrol chainsaws. Fitted between the guide bar and the clutch cover, it keeps the chain aligned as it passes the drive sprocket, helps prevent side wear on the bar rails, and shields the crankcase area from chain contact. As a Genuine Husqvarna part, it matches the original specification for a precise fit and reliable performance on the 550XP and 545 platforms. Supplied under part numbers 522 74 28-01 and 522742801, it is an ideal replacement when the existing plate is bent, grooved or missing after service.
