Description
Overview:
The Stop Buffer for Stihl MS231 and MS231C is a genuine OEM rubber damper used on Stihl petrol chainsaws to control vibration and impact loads within the chassis. Built from a hard‐wearing rubber compound to withstand repeated shocks, it helps isolate the engine unit from the handles and housing, reducing wear on adjacent parts and improving operator comfort. This small component plays a big role in keeping cutting performance consistent by preventing excessive movement under load. It is designed specifically for Stihl chainsaws, with precise fitment for models including the MS 231 and MS 231 C. Suitable for routine maintenance or as a direct replacement when the original buffer becomes cracked, perished, or compressed.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM part for assured fit and function
- Durable rubber construction for long service life under vibration
- Helps reduce transmitted vibration to protect housings, mounts, and controls
- Supports smooth running and stable bar and chain alignment
- Consistent performance in varied temperatures and typical outdoor conditions
- Direct replacement with straightforward installation on compatible models
- Maintains designed clearances to prevent unnecessary rattles and wear
- Suitable for both professional and DIY maintenance schedules
Typical Applications:
Used during routine servicing or repairs when excessive vibration, rattling, or harshness is noticed, or when the original buffer shows signs of ageing such as cracks, hardening, or deformation. Ideal for restoring the anti‐vibration system on Stihl mid‐range chainsaws working in forestry, landscaping, firewood processing, grounds maintenance, and site work where prolonged engine vibration is common.
