Description
Overview:
This snap closure is a genuine Stihl part designed for secure fastening on Stihl chainsaws, specifically the MS 441 and MS 441 C. Manufactured to OEM specifications under part number 1138 140 1600, it provides a positive snap action to hold covers and housings firmly in place during operation. The closure is made from a durable, impact‐resistant polymer suited to tough outdoor use and the vibration typical of professional saws.

It is a direct replacement for worn or missing closures and is suitable for routine maintenance or repairs where a precise, factory-fit component is required.
