Description
Overview:
This Genuine Stihl clutch is a direct replacement for the drive clutch on large Stihl chainsaws, including the MS 880 and 088. Manufactured from durable metal, it transfers engine power to the chain sprocket under load and disengages at idle to prevent unwanted chain movement. It restores smooth, reliable drive when the original clutch is worn, slipping, or damaged. Built to Stihl specifications for fit and performance, it is supplied to match OEM reference 1124 160 2005 for straightforward replacement. Suitable for heavy-duty cutting work, it helps keep professional and domestic saws operating safely and efficiently, reducing downtime and avoiding further wear to driveline parts when the existing clutch has reached the end of its service life.
