Description
Overview:
This Spur Gear / Chain Adjusting Screw Kit is a Genuine Stihl OEM replacement for the chain tensioning mechanism on a range of Stihl chainsaws, including the MS311 and MS391. Supplied under MPN 1127 007 1003, the kit includes a durable polymer spur gear and a robust steel adjusting screw that work together to move the guide bar for precise chain tension.

Ideal for restoring smooth, positive adjustment when original components are worn or stripped, keeping your saw ready for regular forestry, farm, landscaping, and property maintenance tasks.
