Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl handle molding (OEM 1148 791 0600) is a replacement grip component for Stihl petrol chainsaws in the MS162 and MS172 series. Made from a robust, high‐impact polymer in a hard‐wearing black finish, it is shaped to provide a stable, comfortable hold during cutting tasks. Replacing a cracked, worn, or slippery molding helps maintain safe operation and precise control, especially when working with gloves.
