Description
Overview:
This Filter Base is a Genuine Stihl replacement part for petrol chainsaws, designed to securely locate the air filter and maintain a clean, sealed air path to the engine. Made from tough, moulded polymer in black, it withstands vibration, fuel mist and heat typical of heavy chainsaw use. The base aligns the filter with the carburettor housing and helps prevent dust and debris from entering the intake, supporting consistent running and reduced wear.
