Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl cylinder base gasket (MPN 1122 029 2301) is a 0.5 mm sealing gasket for the joint between the cylinder and crankcase on Stihl two‐stroke chainsaws, including the MS660 and 066. Made from durable, heat‐ and fuel‐resistant gasket material, it restores and maintains an airtight seal to prevent air and oil leaks and to preserve correct compression. A precise 0.5 mm thickness supports accurate assembly height, helping the engine start reliably and produce consistent power under load. Designed for the demands of forestry, arborist and construction site use, it is suitable for routine top‐end refreshes and for replacing a damaged or leaking gasket. As a genuine Stihl part, it matches the original specification for fit and performance, helping your saw run smoothly and efficiently.
