Description
Overview:
The Circlip 26x1.2 is a genuine Stihl retaining ring designed to keep components securely in place on handheld outdoor power equipment. Made from hardened spring steel for strength and long service life, it prevents unwanted axial movement in assemblies subject to vibration and load. This circlip is suitable for a range of Stihl brushcutters and clearing saws, including the FS80 and FR106. Its precise dimensions ensure a reliable fit: 26 mm diameter (approximately 1.02 inches) and 1.2 mm thickness (approximately 0.05 inches). Use it where the service manual specifies this size to retain gears, bearings, spacers, or pulleys on a groove. OEM reference: 9456 621 2960. A correct-fit circlip helps maintain performance, reduce wear, and support safe operation during demanding tasks.
