Description
Overview:
This Heat Shield is a genuine Hitachi/Hikoki part designed to protect small engine components from radiant and exhaust heat. Made from a heat‐resistant moulded plastic, it sits around the engine/muffler area to deflect heat away from nearby parts such as the carburettor, fuel lines and recoil housing. It helps maintain safe operating temperatures and reduces the risk of heat damage during prolonged use. Engineered for Hikoki/Hitachi brush cutters and related machines, it is a direct replacement for OEM No. 6687253 and replaces 133-06540-20. Ideal for restoring reliable performance on popular models including TBC230SF and TBC-230B, it offers a precise fit and dependable protection for both trade and homeowner equipment.
