Description
Overview:
This helical compression spring is a genuine Stihl replacement part for AutoCut 25-2 and C 25-2 mowing heads. Made from high-grade spring steel, it provides the precise return force needed to keep the spool centred and the line feeding smoothly in tap-and-go heads. Replacing a worn, fatigued, or broken spring restores consistent bump-feed operation and reliable line take-up, improving cutting performance and reducing downtime. Built to Stihl specifications and referenced to OEM No. 0000 997 1501, it installs as a direct-fit component with no modification. Suitable for use on Stihl grass trimmers and brushcutters fitted with these AutoCut heads, it supports both professional maintenance routines and regular domestic garden work.
