Description
Overview:
This Cylinder Gasket is a genuine Stihl part for two-stroke engines used in tools such as the SP 400 and SP 450. It sits between the crankcase and the cylinder barrel to create an airtight, fuel-tight seal that maintains correct compression and prevents leaks. Made from a heat, fuel and oil resistant gasket composite, it is profile-cut to match the engine ports and bolt pattern for a precise fit. Using the correct base gasket helps protect performance, starting, and engine longevity by preserving crankcase pressure and preventing unmetered air ingress. It is suitable for routine maintenance and top-end rebuilds on a range of Stihl brushcutters, clearing saws and similar machines listed below. Genuine Stihl quality ensures reliable sealing and consistent performance.
