Description
Overview:
This Easystart Housing Grommet is a Genuine Stihl part designed to seal and protect openings in the starter/housing area on a wide range of Stihl machines, including the MS231 and MS231C. Made from tough, oil‐ and fuel‐resistant black rubber, it provides a snug push‐fit in the housing to keep out dust, moisture, and debris while helping to reduce vibration at the mounting point. The grommet maintains system integrity by preventing small leaks around pass‐throughs and fixing points, supporting reliable running and tidy cable or line routing. Built to Stihl's OEM specification (part no. 0000 989 0816), it fits precisely and is suitable for routine maintenance or refurbishment on chainsaws, cut‐off saws, pole pruners and other listed Stihl equipment.
Key Features:
