Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl clutch (manufacturer part number 4135 160 2001) is a metal centrifugal drive unit for Stihl brushcutters, built to engage the cutting head smoothly as engine speed increases and to disengage at idle. It replaces worn or slipping clutches to restore reliable power transfer and steady cutting performance. Designed for Stihl FR125 and FR135 machines, it fits directly in place of the original component with no modification. The robust metal construction is suited to regular use in landscaping and grounds maintenance, supporting consistent engagement, reduced vibration, and dependable stopping when the throttle is released. As an OEM part, it maintains the intended operating characteristics of the tool, helping protect the engine and gearbox while keeping the head spinning only when needed.
