Description
Overview:
The Grooved Ball Bearing for the Stihl MS500i is a genuine Stihl component engineered to support smooth, accurate rotation in demanding chainsaw use. Manufactured from high-grade steel with precision-ground raceways, it helps to minimise friction and wear while maintaining alignment under load. Dimensions are 15 mm (0.59 in) internal diameter x 37.7 mm (1.48 in) external diameter x 11 mm (0.43 in) width. As a direct replacement for OEM No. 9523 003 4280, it provides a precise fit on the MS500i and restores reliable running where an original bearing has worn or failed. Built for durability, it withstands vibration and high rotational speeds typical of professional and heavy domestic cutting tasks, making it suitable for routine maintenance or full rebuilds.
