Description
Overview:
The Handle Filler 503 40 47-01 is a genuine Husqvarna OEM insert used within the chainsaw handle assembly to restore correct spacing, support and rigidity. Manufactured from tough moulded polymer in a dark grey/black finish, it sits between adjoining handle or body sections to prevent flex and keep components aligned under load. This improves handling and helps the anti‐vibration system work as intended. It is designed specifically for Husqvarna petrol chainsaws, including the 254 and 257, ensuring an accurate fit without modification. Suitable for both professional saws and homeowner machines, it replaces cracked, worn or missing fillers so the handle remains secure and reliable in daily use.
