Description
Overview:
This Tank Cap is a Genuine Husqvarna replacement for older professional and homeowner chainsaws, engineered to seal the fuel tank securely and keep contaminants out. Built from fuel‐resistant polymer with a rubber sealing gasket, the cap maintains correct pressure and prevents leaks during cutting, transport, and storage.
