Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl clutch assembly is a metal, centrifugal drive component for Stihl brushcutters, designed to engage and disengage power between the engine and the cutting head. It transfers torque smoothly as engine speed rises and releases at idle to prevent the head spinning when not in use. Built for regular professional and domestic workloads, it helps restore reliable cutting performance and safe control. The robust, two-shoe design offers dependable operation in dusty and demanding environments. It is a direct replacement for OEM No. 4137 160 2001 and fits Stihl FS75 and FS80 models, with compatibility also extending to related platforms.
