Description
Overview:
This Throttle Cable is a genuine Stihl replacement part designed for precise engine speed control on Stihl hedge trimmers. Built with a strong steel inner wire and a flexible black polymer outer sheath, it ensures smooth throttle response and reliable return to idle. It restores crisp, predictable control when the original cable has become stretched, frayed, or sticky. Suitable for a range of pro and domestic machines, including the Stihl HS 75 and HS 80, it fits and functions to factory specification. As an OEM component (MPN 4226 180 1101), it matches the original routing and end fittings for secure connection at the trigger and carburettor, helping your trimmer start cleanly, hold a steady idle, and deliver full power under load.
Key Features:
- Genuine Stihl OEM part for assured fit and performance (MPN 4226 180 1101)
- Steel inner cable with durable outer sheath for long service life
- Low-friction operation for smooth throttle action and positive return
- Factory-correct end fittings to suit trigger and carburettor levers
- Direct replacement for worn, stretched, or damaged throttle cables
- Helps restore stable idle, responsive acceleration, and full top speed
- Built to withstand typical hedge trimmer vibration and weather exposure
- Straightforward installation with basic hand tools and standard routing
Typical Applications:
Used on Stihl hedge trimmers to maintain accurate engine speed control during trimming, shaping, and finishing work. Ideal when the throttle sticks, returns slowly, surges at idle, or no longer reaches full RPM. Suits routine maintenance, seasonal servicing, or repairs after heavy use or accidental cable damage.
Also known as:
Throttle control cable, accelerator cable, control cable, gas cable, throttle wire, Bowden cable, carburettor control cable. These terms refer to the same function: linking the trigger to the carburettor to regulate engine speed smoothly and reliably.
