Description
Overview:
The Sleeve 4.9 mm for Stihl HS46 is a small precision component used to guide and support pins, bolts, or shafts within your hedge trimmer's assemblies. Supplied as a Genuine Stihl OEM part (4242 641 4901), it is built from hard‐wearing material to resist abrasion and maintain alignment under regular use.
