Description
Overview:
This genuine Stihl rewind spring is the OEM replacement for the recoil starter mechanism on selected handheld machines. Made from hardened spring steel, it stores and releases energy to retract the starter cord smoothly after each pull, helping your engine start reliably. Designed for Stihl garden and landscaping tools, it maintains the correct tension and return speed of the starter rope for consistent performance under regular use. Supplied to match the original specification, it is a direct fit where specified and avoids the guesswork of pattern parts. Suitable for a wide range of models, including the BG 45 and BG 85 leaf blowers. OEM Part No. 4228 190 0600.
