Description
Overview:
This Genuine Husqvarna Heat Deflector is a formed metal shield that sits by the exhaust/muffler to divert heat away from nearby parts. Made from heat‐resistant steel in a robust pressed plate design, it helps protect covers, fuel lines and ignition components from sustained high temperatures, reducing the risk of heat soak and premature wear. It is suitable for selected Husqvarna disc cutters and chainsaws, including the 362 and 362XP, and is a direct replacement for Husqvarna part number 503 77 58‐02 (503775802). Fitting the deflector helps keep engine bay temperatures more stable, supporting consistent performance in tough, dusty conditions. It installs using the machine's existing fixings, making it a straightforward swap during routine servicing or rebuilds.
Key Features:
- Genuine Husqvarna part for assured fit, alignment and reliability
- Heat-deflecting plate directs hot gases away from plastics, wiring and hoses
- Durable pressed steel construction for long service life under high temperatures
