Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl flywheel (OEM No. 1128 400 1214) is a key engine component for 044, 044C and MS440 chainsaws. Made from tough, finned metal, it stores rotational energy to smooth power delivery, regulate engine speed, and keep the engine balanced under load. Designed to seat precisely on the crankshaft taper, it supports consistent idle, clean acceleration and dependable running. The profile interfaces correctly with the starter mechanism and surrounding shrouds for a clean, accurate fit on the specified models. Ideal for replacing a worn, damaged or out‐of‐balance flywheel, it helps restore original performance and reliability on professional and domestic saws working in demanding conditions.
