Description
Overview:
This genuine Husqvarna gasket is a replacement sealing component for petrol chainsaws, suitable for models such as the 254 and 262XP. Made from a durable gasket composite, it is cut to the original profile to seal mating engine surfaces, helping to maintain compression and prevent air, fuel and oil leaks. The correct seal supports smooth running, stable tuning and easier starting, whether the saw is used for forestry, landscaping or construction work.
