Overview:
The Stihl Plastic Felling / Cutting Wedge (Manufacturer Part Number 0000 881 2213) is a genuine Stihl accessory for safe and controlled tree work. Made from durable, impact-resistant plastic in a high-visibility orange finish, it is designed to be driven into a saw kerf to guide the direction of fall and to prevent the guide bar from being pinched while cutting.

The tapered profile and textured faces provide good hold in the wood, while the lightweight design makes it easy to carry on site. A reliable choice for forestry, arboriculture, landscaping, and farm or estate maintenance.
