Description
Overview:
This genuine Husqvarna radial seal is a circular, compact component designed to keep critical rotating shaft areas sealed on professional and domestic chainsaws. Made from a durable, oil‐resistant elastomer with a metal-reinforced outer case, it helps maintain crankcase pressure and prevents leaks of fuel/oil mix while keeping dust and debris out. By holding a stable seal around the shaft, it supports smooth running, reliable starting, and consistent performance. It is engineered for a precise, interference fit in the correct housing and is suitable for Husqvarna arborist and ground saws including T540XP and T540XPII. OEM reference 588 13 97 01 (MPN 588139701) ensures the right identification and a straightforward like‐for‐like replacement with the correct dimensions for the specified machines.
